Use start.me as startpage for your Chromebooks

Are you using Chromebooks in your class/school? start.me is an excellent launch page for Chromebooks!

First, create a team portal

You can get your portal domain (e.g., https://yourschool.start.me) when you upgrade to our team plan ($150/year for educators). The advantages of a team portal:

• A more comfortable and shorter URL to remember
• Sub-menu showing all your (team) pages
• Additional branding options (e.g., logo) for your team
• Other layout options for your pages. Example: you can decide to hide the sign-in button, footer, and search bar.
