How to connect to a School Account

This article will provide teachers and administrators with the information needed to connect to a school account subscription.

There are two ways to connect an existing personal Planbook account to a school Planbook account:

Receive an Administrator Invite

An administrator at the school can send send an invitation to a new or existing Planbook account to become connected to the school account.  The invited teacher will receive an email to complete the connection process. Note that any teacher with an existing account that is connecting to a school will retain all existing plans, and nothing will be lost when connecting to a school account. To create an invite, the school administrator will do the following in their Planbook administrator account:
  1. From the Planbook Bar, select Teachers.
  2. Click the Invite Teachers (+) icon in top-right menu.
  3. Enter the teacher's email address.
  4. Click the Save (checkmark) icon to save the invitation.

The invited teacher will receive an email with a link to create their connected account.  If they do not receive this email, they can still create their account and be automatically connected to the school subscription by following these steps:

  1.  Visit the Planbook login page.
  2. Click the "Sign Up" link at the bottom.
  3. Enter the email they were invited under and a password of their choice, and then confirm the password.
  4. Click "Sign Up".

    Add School ID to your Account

    Teachers can email Planbook at support@planbook.com to be connected to their school account.  When emailing, teachers should include the following information:

    1. Email of the account to be connected.
    2. Name of the school to be connected to.
    3. City and state of the school to be connected to.
