Enter your name and email address, create a password and enter the student pairing code provided by your student’s teacher or generated from your student’s Canvas account. Click “Start Participating” to create your Canvas parent account.
- To generate a new pairing code, students should log into their Canvas student account, select “Account”, click “Settings” followed by “Pair with an Observer to generate a code. The pairing code will expire in seven days or after its first use.

Days with No School to Schedule Appointments
One of the most important ways a family can support their child's growth and learning is to make sure they are in attendance each day at school. There is absolutely no substitute for the quality of learning that takes place in a classroom led by an expert teacher with peers to collaborate with and share in the learning. There are many unpredictable events in life that can result in missing school, from simple sickness to family emergencies. It is important for our students' learning to make sure that for those events that are within our control, we are planning in ways that keep their attendance high and without interruption.
As a way to partner with families and help them with careful planning, here are the days that students are out of session for the 2022/2023 school year:
