Canvas provides a way for parents and guardians to view their student's progress and content in each course.

As an Observer, parents and guardians can link their Canvas account to their student's account so they can see assignment dues dates, announcements, and other course content and information. Remember, Observers can view the course content but cannot participate in the course.
