Why isn't my school-issued email accepted during sign up? How do I sign up?

CommonLit is constantly growing, and it's possible you are the first teacher from your school or district to sign up. This means CommonLit will need to add your email domain to the system as a recognized school email. 

To create your educator account, please email help@commonlit.org and include one of the following:

• A link to your online staff directory listing you and your email or
• A photo of your staff ID or
• A copy of your teaching certificate.

Please Note: It's also possible that your school-issued email is not being accepted if students and teachers at your school or district have the same domain. This means we need to add your individual email address to our system as a recognized school email.

If you already emailed us at help@commonlit.org, a member of the Support Team will respond as soon as they are able.

ℹ️ If you receive an error message during sign up that your email is not available, you may already have an account. Try logging in with Google, or go to the Forgot Your Password page to request a reset password link be sent to the email on your account.
