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.

Is there a cost for the Parent Portal?

The Parent Portal is a free service, but you must have access to the internet either via a laptop/desktop, a tablet, or a smart phone.

What if I can't remember my username and password?

Click "Having trouble signing in" on the log-in page. You will be asked to enter your username to reset your password. You will need to enter your e-mail address if you have forgotten both your username and your password. Information will be sent to your e-mail address.

What happens if I can't access the letter that has my child's access ID and password on it?

Parents who have misplaced the letter will need to contact their child's school to get another copy.

How does my child log in to the portal?

Or students can access Powerschool via #CCSEngage via their Chromebooks.

Will my child still have access if I do not create a Parent Portal account?

Students have been provided information to access their data regardless of whether parents have requested access.
