Canvas Setup

Parent Setup

Catholic Central has adopted the use of the Canvas Learning Management System. Every course has a digital equivalent through our Canvas Platform.

Via their school-issued iPads, students log in to their Canvas accounts and access all of their assignments, notes, quizzes, tests, and grades conveniently linked within their calendar and available 24/7. They can receive class handouts, complete and turn in homework, and work with other students in collaboration groups. Students can also log in to their Canvas accounts via their home computers to complete work if their iPad is not readily available.

Instructions

Canvas is a great place to stay current on your students’ curriculum, coursework, and due dates. You can view student information via a web browser or from an iOS or Android app. To view course information in Canvas, follow these three steps below. If you have any questions or require support, please don’t hesitate to contact the technology department at chadbice@grcatholiccentral.org.

Step 1: Request pairing code

When creating an account in the Parent app, you will need to enter a pairing code, which is generated from your student’s account. View the lesson below to learn how your student can generate this code:

How do I generate a pairing code for an observer as a student?

Step 2: Canvas parent account creation

Parents can be paired with student Canvas accounts with observer credentials by following the instructions below. Note: when searching for our Canvas school, enter ‘Diocese of Grand Rapids.’

Step 3: Parent login

Parents can log in to Canvas from any web browser or an iOS or Android app.  For more information on logging in to the web browser or Parent app, view the following instructions:
