Creating a Canvas Parent Password
The first time you login as a Parent/Guardian Observer, you will need to create a password. Follow the instructions below to create an account password.
NOTE: We recommend that you set your initial password using a web browser rather than using the mobile app.
- Go to the Canvas Login page from a computer web browser.
- Click the "Forgot Password?" link.
- In the email field, enter the email address you use for your ParentVUE account.
- Wait for the Canvas Password Reset email.
- Select the "Click here to set a new password" link.
- Enter the password of your choosing, at least 8 digits in length.
- Now, log into Canvas with the password you created.
- After you login, review and agree to the Acceptable Use Policy.
- Have questions? Read the Canvas Parent FAQs for additional information and support documentation.
Reminders: Observer access is available for parents/guardians of students in 6-12th grades. ParentVUE continues to be the primary source of student grades and teacher communication.
