Step 2: Identify student age group

Students will be prompted to identify if they are under 13 and confirm their birth date:

• For students under 13:

• If the district hasn’t completed the required COPPA form, the student will be directed to a screen notifying them to talk to their teacher to get access.

• Students under 13 will not be able to access Lucid in Canvas until the COPPA form is completed by the district.

• For districts that have given COPPA approval students will move past this step and go directly to account activation.
