Parent and Guardian Access
Read this first!
This page will provide you with directions to create a Parent/Guardian Canvas account using a desktop browser. While the Parent mobile app provides an on-the-go glimpse of course calendars and due dates, Canvas provides parents and guardians a much richer observer experience on desktop browsers, where much more content is available to view using an interface similar to a student's. We encourage you to access Canvas via a desktop browser to view more content and communicate with your student's teachers.
Before beginning to create an account in Canvas, please ensure that you are using a supported browser. Canvas supports the current and first previous releases of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge.
If you would prefer video instructions, you can watch the instructional video below.
