Description
Grade Guardian is a student retention and success solution that integrates directly with Canvas to provide a “risk index” of how well they are performing in their classes.
Grade Guardian provides a live dashboard of students grades that support teachers can use to assist students.
Grade Guardian also provides a communication hub to communicate with all of a student's teachers with one click.
Please note: Access to student grades and missing assignments should be treated as confidential student data and never shared outside of our professional systems of student support with designated staff, teachers, and administrators.
Teacher Access
Teacher Access
Teacher access is automatically created when enrolled in our Canvas LMS and a course is published.
When a teacher clicks on the link to Grade Guardian, they will only see the students in their course and the student risk index references student performance only in your course.

Advisor Access
Advisor Access
Advisors in Grade Guardian are teachers or staff members that need access to all students or a subgroup of students in Canvas.
Advisors typically include: Admin, Counselors, SPED Teachers, Self and Social Empowerment teachers, etc.
Advisors will have "read-only" access to see all students at a school site unless assigned to a custom dashboard.
Advisors Assignments can also be given to custom dashboards to groups of specific students.
Access to custom dashboards is managed by your assistant principal and SDA at your school site.
