New for the 2026-27 School Year!

• Redeeming teacher materials for all classes is now the same, making it easier to add the material to your teacher profile. Take a look at the Create and Edit a Class article for steps on how to redeem your teacher content.

• Teachers who use Pearson Review of Progress & Learning (PRoPL) for their benchmark testing will soon have access to assessment data in the same place as the rest of their reports for their classes. More information will be available on the support site soon.

• Grades 6-12 students will soon be able to view and track their own proficiency data for McGraw Hill Literacy Summit! and Soar!, as well as for Reveal Math. More information will be available soon.

• Actively Learn Virtual Labs provide students with opportunities to practice scientific inquiry rather than just reading and responding. See the Actively Learn Science Virtual Labs article for more information.

Log into Your Account

For Single Sign-On districts, most teachers and students log into a district Student Information System (SIS) or Learning Management System (LMS) and use their district’s launch point to access McGraw Hill platforms. Teachers and students will automatically be signed into their McGraw Hill Programs.

For Direct Login districts, visit my.mheducation.com to sign in once you've received your login credentials. Enter your username or email address and your password in the appropriate fields, keeping in mind that your password is case-sensitive. If you’re unsure of your login information, refer to the Recover Your Teacher or Administrator Login Information article.

Users without a teacher account should contact their Organization Administrator, who can assist by either creating a teacher account on their behalf or sharing the Self-Registration Code. If provided with the Self-Registration Code, teachers can follow the steps outlined in the Create a McGraw Hill Teacher Account article to complete their registration.

Redeem Content

Redeeming teacher materials for all classes is now the same, making it easier to add the material to your teacher profile. Take a look at the Create and Edit a Class article for steps on how to redeem your teacher content.

For select programs, teachers will need to add the Student Edition to their accounts for students to be able to gain access to the student content. For steps on adding the student material and assigning it to students, refer to the Redeem a ConnectED Master Code and Assign the ConnectED Student Edition articles.

Create and Roster Students

If administrators decide to have teachers create and roster their own classes, teachers have two options to complete these tasks: use the Import Students/Rosters feature or manually create and roster their students.

The import student/rosters feature allows teachers to easily roster new and existing students to new or existing classes all from one file upload. Refer to the Students/Rosters Import Process Resources for Teachers article for steps on how to use the import process.

There is also the option to manually roster new or existing students to your class. Manually creating student accounts works a little differently depending on which program you're using. If you're using an Open Learning program, you can create new student accounts directly. But if you're using ConnectED materials, you'll need to either import students using the roster import process or have your administrator create the accounts through their administrator tools. Once that's done, you can roster those students to their courses yourself.

To learn which programs are either Open Learning or ConnectED, refer to the Identifying My Learning Environment article.

For steps on manually rostering students to classes, refer to the appropriate article:

• Add and Remove Students from an Open Learning Class Roster

• Add and Remove Students from a ConnectED Class Roster

Some programs have unique ways to roster students to classes. Take a look at the following articles for the steps on how to roster students to these classes:

• Wonders/Maravillas Class Management

• Manage Everyday Mathematics® 4 Classes

• Manage Networks Course Classes

• Manage Number Worlds/Building Blocks 2015 Classes

• Create and Roster StudySync 2015/2017 Classes
