How do families access Canvas?
Canvas provides families with the option of creating a Canvas Observer account. The Canvas Observer account helps families stay up to date with their student's courses. Through the Canvas Observer account, families have an “observer” role in their student’s course(s). As an observer, families are linked to their student’s account so they can see assignment due dates, announcements, and set up notifications. Observers can view the course content but cannot participate in the course. Information such as student grades and missing assignments can be accessed by using Infinite Campus.
To set up a Canvas Observer account, please access the Canvas Training Course here. This course will explain how to link to your student’s account as well as help you navigate Canvas.
If you already have a Canvas Observer account you can access our Canvas site at the following URL:
