Canvas benefits include:

  • Anywhere, anytime access to digital coursework and instructional content
  • Consolidated materials in one place with quick, easy access
  • Streamlined communication and collaboration from any device
  • Canvas is one way SBISD is simplifying and consolidating our platforms to ensure a great learning experience for all.
