Playlists
Playlists are an essential part of virtual learning as they are primarily class agendas that contain assignment information and links to those assignments. Your child will have one playlist per subject. New playlists are available each Friday after 5pm through students' Canvas courses or through their teacher's webpage. Although it maybe rare, students are recommended to check playlists daily for possible assignment changes or updates.
