Canvas Help for Parents

 

Canvas

 

Canvas is our Learning Management System. Parents can sign up for a free account in order to view the resources and activities posted in their child’s courses that are available on Canvas. You can access our Canvas by using a browser on a computer, or by installing the Canvas Parent app on your mobile device.

Parent accounts can:

  • Read announcements, view the calendar, and see the course syllabus.
  • Access a list of assignments with due dates.
  • See your child's assignments, but not his/her discussion posts
  • View your child’s scores on assignments in Canvas. Course grades will continue to be published in SIS.
  • Use the Inbox to contact the teacher.
  • Set up notifications to get emails or texts for announcements, assignments, etc.
  • View the instructional content in the course. 

If you need to create a Parent Account, please look at the guides at the bottom of this page. Please visit Canvas's Clarity for Canvas Observers page to learn more about the observer role.

All grades are entered into Canvas and can be checked routinely for the most up-to-date information on your student's progress and any missing work.  At the end of each grading period (mid-quarter, quarter, and semester) grades are posted on Infinite Campus, which houses the student's official grade card.
