Parents

Designed specifically for K-12 teachers and students, Canvas is a learning management system (LMS) that connects digital tools and other curricular resources to one location that's Internet accessible 24/7. Parents can sign up as observers in Canvas. Observers can link their account to their student's Canvas account so they can see assignment dues dates, announcements, and other course content. Observers can view their student's course content but cannot participate in the course.

Students must provide their parent with a "Student Pairing Code" to link to their student account when the Canvas parent account is created. How do I generate a pairing code for an observer as a student?

Once the Canvas Parent Observer account is created, the parent can use a web browser or the Canvas Parent app to observe course content.

Login credentials for the Parent Portal are created by you, the user. However, you will also need an Access ID and Password for each of your students. CECHS will provide this information to you in the form of a letter. 

To help ensure that only the legal parents or guardians of each student receive this information, please contact Tammy Darnell by calling 704-476-8232 or emailing her at tedarnell@clevelandcountyschools.org.
