Canvas Resources for Districts and Schools

Instructure – CANVAS Learning Management System

The Canvas Learning Management Platform allows schools to build the digital learning environment that meets the unique challenges faced by their institution. Canvas simplifies teaching, elevates learning, and eliminates the headaches of supporting and growing traditional learning technologies.

Canvas is made up of a powerful set of highly integrated learning products that allow institutions to get all of the functionality they need.

If you have any questions regarding your school or district’s Canvas instance or content, please contact your district representative listed in the Canvas page. For technical support, log in to your Canvas account and click the Help button to receive direct assistance from Canvas tech support. For any other inquiries, please reach out to Kathy Lefevre at kathy.lefevre@doe.nv.gov.
