The Sioux City Community School District is committed to keeping open lines of communication with all parents/guardians, staff, students, and community members.
Our alerts system sends out phone calls, emails, and text messages to parents from your child’s school and the District. Communication includes attendance, lunch account balances, weather-related information, and other important messages. If a parent/guardian does not receive a message, please contact the school registrar to verify all contact information is current.
Canvas is the middle school and high school learning management system (LMS). Teachers give assignments, tests and scores that parents of students can view. Teachers can send individual, group, and course-wide messages to students and parents.
Infinite Campus is the District’s student information system (SIS) for elementary, middle, and high school students. Through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal, parents /guardians of students can view/update critical information such as an address, email, emergency contacts, and phone numbers.
