Canvas:  Parent/Guardian Parent Night: Parents and guardians are invited to a Canvas Parent Night at Sunset High School on Monday, February 26 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm for a slice of pizza, and time to learn about Canvas, our Learning Management System (LMS). Come explore how to navigate Canvas and see how teachers who are using Canvas post assignments, give feedback, and communicate with students.  You will have an opportunity to create your own Parent/Guardian Canvas account. This allows you to see what your students are working on in their classes.  If you have already created an account you will have an opportunity learn how to successfully navigate Canvas.  Student leaders are available to help entertain younger children as you work with us.  If you are interested, please RSVP here: http://bit.ly/RSVPparentcanvas
