You may only create an Account for Students you have consent and authority for. By entering a Student’s information into the Services, you represent and warrant that you have all necessary consent and authority, including from the Student’s legal guardian, to create an Account on such Student’s behalf. You can only give invite codes (“Class Codes”) to those Students who meet all of the foregoing requirements and all other requirements specified by Newsela.

3.5.1. Student Accounts. “Student” Accounts are for use by Students with Account Class Codes, who are receiving the Services through a specific School in connection with a Class taught by a Teacher. To create a Student Account, a Student must be provided with a Class Code by a Teacher, Parent or Administrator.

3.5.2. Learner Accounts. “Learner” Accounts are for Students without Class Codes who register for Accounts on the Newsela Website at [https://www.newsela.com/signup]. By registering for a Learner Account, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13 years of age. If you are under age 13, you may not register for a Learner Account and can only use the Services if a Teacher, Parent or Administrator provides you with a Class Code or Student Account.
