Canvas 
We have updated the process by which the Canvas observer role is created for parents and guardians.  All active ParentVUE account users now have a Canvas observer role. Moving forward, any parent or guardian who activates their ParentVUE account will automatically have an associated Canvas account created. Instructions for our parents and guardians are at the link below. http://bit.ly/18BSDCANVASPARENT
