Beaverton School District parents are now able to create their own Canvas Parent Observer Accounts.

The Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) is used by many middle and high school teachers as an extension to in-class instruction. Teachers using Canvas can post assignments, give feedback, and communicate with students.

Parents or guardians do not need a Canvas account to monitor student progress, you can continue to use ParentVUE; however, you can create a Canvas account to view more detailed assignment information, view feedback and communicate with the teacher.

Think of Canvas as a virtual backpack, giving you a look at the day-to-day assignments. ParentVUE will still be the source for attendance and permanent record grades.

Visit the BSD Canvas for Parents webpage to learn more about how to create your own Canvas account, as well as answers to frequently asked questions.

Mr. Nate Berne joined the Cedar Park staff full time this year as a Humanities 6/7 teacher. Mr. Berne has several years teaching experience from living in Japan for 5 years. He will start working with a new group of students this coming week, as we were given additional funding to help address class sizes. Welcome to the Pack, Mr. Berne.
