We've heard that some guardians have had difficulty navigating Canvas to view student grades, and would like to share some tips that may be useful.

As part of our PBSES work to support students, middle and high school students will be asked to complete a short, 25-item Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) during the month of October. The survey is kid-friendly and used to gain insight about individual student emotional and behavioral functioning. It identifies a child’s personal strengths as well as challenges.

The first grading period for secondary students is quickly approaching. Grades for the first check will not be posted in Skyward, but you can access your student's grades in Canvas. Please make sure that you can successfully access your Observer account by following the directions on the ISD website or viewing the video tutorial.
