Troubleshooting:
Most of our available support is for district-issued devices, such as Chromebooks. However, here are a few common issues that may be affecting access:
Parental Controls: If parental controls have recently been applied or updated, they may be interfering with the student's ability to view lessons. Families may need to adjust these settings. For additional troubleshooting, I recommend visiting i-Ready's support page.
Clever Login: A frequent issue we see is students forgetting that they must log in through Clever. They may be working fine for a while but then encounter a login screen and attempt to sign in through a method we don’t use. It’s always helpful to remind them to access i-Ready through Clever.
