Canvas Course

Canvas Course

Using a Canvas course provides students and parents access to class resources both in and out of the classroom.

  • Every K-12 teacher uses and publishes the course that is created through the Canvas/Skyward sync. Students are automatically loaded into these courses.
    • K-5: Teachers will at least publish and use their Homeroom.
    • If you are a licensed employee who does not have a course created through the Canvas/Skyward sync (e.g., counselor, specialist, AC, ETC, etc.), you may create your own course.
  • Optional: Cross-list courses that represent multiple sections that are present in their Skyward gradebook. If you have not done this before, work with your school’s Ed Tech Coach.
    • K-5: This is most applicable for Dual Immersion teacher teams.
