Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) of choice for Avenues Secondary Division.

Parents are enrolled in Canvas courses as observers of their own children. They have access to general course information and grades. Avenues believes this access should be seen as a conversation starter, as it can help parents by giving a general overview of what their children are learning.
