Troubleshooting Guide for Parents
-
What if my child is not in a class Team that he or she believes they should be?
First, reach out to school principal to find out which classes your student is enrolled in. When you are sure your child is enrolled in the correct class, please inform the school that your child does not have access to their Class Teams. School admin will alert the instructor to have them add your child as a member/student of their class Team.

How will my child locate their Class Teams?
Students should begin with opening the Microsoft Teams application from Clever. Students should then select the Teams icon on the left navigation bar. Here they will access the last Team they worked within. Above the Team name, students may select All Teams at the top, left to access additional Class Teams.

How will my child locate their Teams calendar and online class sessions?
Students should begin with opening up the Microsoft Teams application from Clever. Students should select the Calendar icon on the left navigation bar to view their calendar. To join an online class meeting, select a meeting invite from the calendar and double click to open. Students should then select Join at the top, right or access the "Join Microsoft Teams Meeting" link at the bottom of the invite.

What if my child becomes locked out of their student account?

How will my students and I connect with instructors on Teams?
Teams resources and guidance for families have been shared with families through the District's website, robocalls, texts, and social media. Teams has free local (313) telephone numbers and telephone conferencing for students with more limited access. There are also smartphone and tablet apps for Apple and Android with great functionality. These apps are all completely free to our students when they log in with their District credentials. If you have questions about Microsoft Teams, please email it.training@detroitk12.org.
