Student Devices
All students in Kindergarten through 12th grade are issued an individual device for learning.
- Elementary: Students in grades Kindergarten through 5th are issued an iPad. Students in grades 2-5 have a Logitech Rugged Combo case that includes a keyboard.
- Middle and High: All students are issued an HP Chromebook with case.
Repairs: In instances where devices need to be repaired, parents or students may drop the device off at the school. Unfortunately, the district cannot provide loaner devices. However, we will attempt to get the device repaired as quickly as possible. Appropriate charges may apply.
Accessing Accounts
Clever is the primary way that students access their various accounts.
Students and teachers can access the Clever dashboard at https://clever.com/in/spartanburg2 and log-in with their Google accounts. Just click "Log in with Google."
Students may also use badges to login on devices with cameras.
Accessing Clever On an Elementary iPad
Note: Google authentication will only work if student and staff emails are correct in PowerSchool. If a Clever authentication to a service is not working, please check with your school PowerSchool operator to see if the email address is correct.
Web Filtering and Inappropriate Content
We understand that you may have concerns about your child's access to the internet. The district provides web filtering at our schools to greatly decrease the chance your child will access anything inappropriate. Devices all have web filters in place while your child uses the device outside of our network, like at home. However, no web filter is going to be perfect. We also recommend encouraging safe and ethical practices with your child.
Parent Monitoring Tools
These tools allow you to check on your child's progress. Your teacher will provide information to you and your students on which system to use.
- PowerSchool: general grade information for all students
- Please contact your child's school for initial setup of your parent account.
- SeeSaw: Elementary student learning management and information for younger grades.
- Canvas: Learning Management System primarily used at middle and high school levels
