October 2025 Elementary Parent Tech Talk: 

Our school uses the Clever Portal as an easy way for students to access all the digital learning applications they use at school. With Clever, your child does not need to have a user-name and password for each application.  Your child can login to Clever with a QR code badge OR by typing in their Google user-name and password.  You can find your child’s Google credentials on eSchool Data. If you need a copy of your child’s badge for home, please reach out to your classroom teacher.  

If your child doesn’t have a district device: K-4

Laptop or Chromebook:

1. Open Chrome browser and go to www.clever.com and click: “Login as a student”

If your child has a district device: 5th grade

Your child will log into the chromebook at home using the Clever Badge (QR Code) or by typing their Google Username and Password. This depends on how the device is configured. 

If you need help with accessing Clever or any of the apps within Clever, please contact the Instructional Technology Specialist, Trish McLean mcleant@guilderlandschools.net or your child’s classroom teacher.
