Student Systems
At Macy we have several computer based systems that are used to enrich the academic experience of our students. The information below provides an overview of each system and which grade levels utilize them.

Clever is a tool that is utilized by the district to allow students to log in to their student systems through one central portal.
Students in TK-1st log in using a student badge (QR code) and students in 2nd-6th grades log in using their district email and password. For more information contact your child's teacher.
