WELCOME TO THE 2020-2021 SCHOOL YEAR
The Grandview C-4 School District will utilize the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) to deliver and support all virtual instruction in all K-12 distance and blended learning environments starting in the 2020-2021 school year. Canvas is a powerful tool that allows teachers to create virtual classrooms and learning spaces that ensure students are provided with engaging, interactive, and flexible virtual learning spaces. This page will be updated on a regular basis with important information and support for Grandview students using Canvas.
