Get to Know Clever
Clever is a secure pipeline between your district's data and the learning applications that you and your students use. So when a new student arrives in your class they will automatically be added to many of the online programs you use.
Clever is also a single-sign-on solution, allowing you and students to log into applications with a single set of credentials. With the ease of only one username and password or badges, Clever can help teachers reclaim valuable class time. Students and teachers can open their devices, sign into the Clever Portal, and click on their connected applications to automatically access the online learning program!
