|---|---|
| 1. | Log-in to SIS: If your child doesn't already have an SIS login, help them create one. You will be asked to provide your child's email address, which must be different than your own. Within 15 minutes of you registering your child for classes, SIS will create a "Canvas" account for your child where they will access course syllabi, assignments, etc. The new Canvas login will be the same as your child's SIS login. |

Please note that the username and password for your students' SIS account is the same username and password for their Canvas account. |

[Note: If you have not yet downloaded Blackboard Collaborate onto your computer, you must do so in order to watch the recordings. Go back to Tech Check above for instructions on how to do that.] |
