Boxes on rolling carts containing student devices labeled 5th grade

Northshore School District moved to a one-to-one device scenario in the Fall of 2021. Each student in grades 2-12 will be assigned a district Chromebook, charging cable, and protective case. Students in grades Kindergarten and 1st have access to an assigned iPad in their classroom. They are used for all subject areas, as well as digital citizenship, coding, computer skills and state testing. All of our students have district education based Google accounts.

Device agreements are located in ParentVue

Technology and Device Information

Clever and Schoology

Clever is our District’s current portal system. All parents and students have an account in Clever to help them get connected to all the other systems we will be using. Students and parents log into Clever differently.

Parents will log in to Clever at https://family.nsd.org.

The parent portal will give parents access to buttons for ParentVUE, Schoology, and other district systems. It also provides a method for helping students to get logged in on their device. This is called “Instant Login” and should be used only when a student has trouble logging themselves into Clever.

Parents were sent invitations to join Clever. If your invitation has expired NSD will be sending out a new invitation shortly. Enter the email associated with your Northshore parent account.

Students will log in to Clever at https://my.nsd.org.

Student accounts follow this pattern: the username is their email address and their password is the password they ended last school year with or the default (for new students). Student accounts use the student’s ID number. If you do not know your student’s ID number please look at their information in ParentVUE. If you do not have a ParentVUE account, you can request an account and activation code here: https://form.jotform.com/200321140182132
