Use the Clever Portal to help your students easily find and log into online learning programs.

What is Clever?

Clever is a secure pipeline between OUSD data and the learning applications that you and your students use. Clever provides applications with all the information they need to be seamlessly set up for your school to use.

Clever single sign-on (SSO) allows users to log into applications with a single set of credentials, configured at the district level. With the ease of only one username and password, Clever can help save you and your students time. Students and teachers can open their devices, sign into the Clever Portal, and click on their connected applications to automatically access the online learning program.

How can I access my Clever account?

You should be able to sign in through the Clever OUSD portal at clever.com/in/ousd. Use the "Log in with Google" button. If prompted, use your OUSD login credentials. If you need to access Clever non-teaching staff member, send a helpdesk ticket to helpdesk@ousd.org.

Note about the beginning of the school year:

Classroom teachers should have their Aeries rosters already in Clever. New teachers may not be able to access Clever until they are fully onboarded. Teachers without rostered classes in Aeries (i.e. RSP, intervention, or prep teachers) may need special setup. For support, or issues with Clever login, send a helpdesk ticket to helpdesk@ousd.org.
