Lab Aids Online Portal
Logging in with Clever
SDUHSD science teachers and students should access the Lab Aids online platform through Clever. Links to the Clever portal are located on the SDUHSD Teacher and Student Start Pages. Lab-Aids also has a “Log In with Clever” button on their login page. Clever simplifies the login process for teachers and students so that they do not have to remember separate passwords.
