Parent Portal to View Assignments, Teacher Comments & More

Our teachers use one of two "Learning Management Systems" (LMS) - Canvas or Google Classroom. Click on the accordion below to learn how to login into these powerful tools to view your child's assignments, teacher comments, and more.

Canvas Instructions

Canvas Parent Portal allows you to be an observer in any of your students' classes where Canvas is being utilized as the Learning Management System (LMS). Through the portal, parents can see assignment dues dates, announcements, and other course content. Parent observers can view all of the course content, but cannot participate in the course.

Google Classroom Instructions

As a guardian, you can get email summaries about your student’s activity in Classroom. Email summaries do not include grades.
