Logging in Using a Single Sign-On Portal

Gathering the Login Information You Need

To ensure the login process goes as smoothly as possible, make sure you know how the student will log in and have their credentials ready. 

  • If a student will type their username and password to log in, you need the student’s district single sign-on username and password.
  • If the student will use a Clever Badge or ClassLink QuickCard, make sure you have these ready.

Logging in via Single Sign-On (SSO)

How students do this will look a bit differently depending on the SSO portal and student devices used in your district. 

DB-Icons_20221116_1-Color_Constantly learning_50px.png Before you begin:
Make sure you know the URL or shortcut to your district's SSO portal. If you are not sure where to go but know that students sign in using Clever or Classlink, use the resources below to find your district portal. 

 

Step 1: Open an internet browser on your student's computer, laptop, or Chromebook.

Step 2: Navigate to your SSO portal and type the student's district SSO username and password or tap the Clever Badge login icon and scan their Clever Badge. (The image below is an example of a district Clever portal.)
