Canvas
Lakota's Learning Management System, Canvas, is used across many Lakota classrooms in grades 3-12, providing students and parents with a unified platform for accessing learning materials from individual courses.
Canvas provides a central place for teachers to both deliver content and collect assignments. It also connects students to digital resources and materials and allows them to virtually collaborate with one another.Parents can access Canvas as an observer at any time and view individual assignment grades on Canvas or via Home Access Center.
