SY20 Successes

    • Teacher Quote
      “Overall, I truly enjoyed the online learning experience. I created my online
      classroom to reflect the same classroom students came to daily on campus. It
      was my mission to create announcements, tutorial Video Links, assignments,
      quizzes, assessments, and celebrations. I engaged all of my students,
      and communicated with them directly through the canvas LMS email system.
      This email system was great for teacher/student communication.”
    • Parent Quote
      “I really enjoy the Canvas platform. It is what the colleges and universities use,
      so I am glad my son is getting used to the way colleges will provide information
      about classwork. I hope the schools will continue to use CANVAS during the
      2020-2021 school year.”

SY20 Opportunities for Improvement

    • Teacher Quote
      “I think Canvas is great and there are a couple of things to consider. I
      think if students knew what to expect from the look of each teachers
      Canvas interface that would help or having a standard way so that
      students wouldn't be confused.”

    • Parent Quote
      “Common view would be helpful for our family. We have twins in separate
      classrooms and some assignments are different, including PE (as they
      have different PE teachers).”
