Why Canvas?

The Richmond County School System gathered a committee of stakeholders to review several different Learning Management Systems. This committee presented the top choices to RCSS Leadership and Canvas was ultimately selected because it aligns to our system's educational goals and key practices.

Below are just some of the reasons why we have chosen Canvas LMS for learning in our schools:

Canvas has a clean, intuitive design making it easy for students to use for learning and teachers to use for delivering engaging content
Course modules allow for organized content and assignments and personalized learning paths
Collaboration tools for students and teachers foster cooperation and teamwork
Learning outcomes connect coursework with learning competencies
Grading features include easy grade entry and timely feedback to students with rich, multimedia feedback options
An open platform for third-party apps allows for supplemental digital tools to work seamlessly in the course
