===Teachers on their desktop would need to either be logged into their granitesd.org Google account and have that account synced so they can access all their apps and extensions or the Google Cast app can be added from the Chrome Web Store to their Chrome apps, and access it via the computer connected to the projector.=== ===(It has already been added to all staff Chromebooks and granitesd.org accounts when you are logged in and synced with that account on your desktop computer) ===
