We were so happy to welcome you back to school today! Seeing so many smiling Bobcats, both students and staff, was a really uplifting way to start the first day of virtual learning. We understand that some of our families experienced difficulty this morning when trying to log in to Canvas and/or Google Meets.  If your child was unable to log in due to technical difficulties, please email your child’s teacher and let them know.  They will not be marked absent.  Please bear with us.  As always, we deeply appreciate your understanding and patience!

Please read below to find information regarding technology support for fall virtual instruction that includes both self-help resources and how to request technology support.

• Student Technology Resources: Provides guides, resources and videos for HCPSS student technology. Below are some direct links to commonly used resources:
  • Canvas Orientation - includes how to navigate Canvas
  • Google Meet - includes a video overview of how to login
    • provides a variety of resources for using an HCPSS Chromebook
• Password and Username Self-Service: Allows families to request a password reset or student’s username. New students can use this application to retrieve their account information. This application is also linked off the hcpss.me website, which also includes user directions.
• HCPSS Connect Parent Resources: Provides HCPSS Connect—including Synergy, Canvas, and Family File—guides and videos for parents.

If after reviewing these resources, your family continues to need support, please complete the SFES Student and Family Technology Support Request form and one of our staff members will reach out to you as soon as possible. If you cannot access the online form for any reason, please call the school at 410-313-6900.

Staff will attempt to resolve the issue, and if unsuccessful will provide directions for exchanging the broken device for a working one at the school system’s Onsite Technology Center.
