Logging In to Forefront

This article explains the log in process for various ways of logging in, including Clever, ClassLink, Google and local passwords.

Forefront supports several sign-in methods:

  • Clever SSO

  • ClassLink SSO

  • Google SSO

  • Email and password

Your available sign-in method depends on how your school or district has configured your Forefront account. Even if your district uses Clever or ClassLink, your individual account may use a different sign-in method, such as Google SSO or an email and password. Teachers and administrators within the same district may also use different sign-in methods.

Access the Forefront Login Page

If your account uses Clever or ClassLink, you can select the Forefront Education app directly from your Clever or ClassLink dashboard.

You can also access Forefront by:

Enter the email address associated with your school or district account. Forefront will then direct you to the sign-in method configured for your account.

Logging In with Clever

Select the Forefront Education icon on your Clever dashboard to log in directly to Forefront.

Your district’s IT department manages the Forefront Education app and your access through Clever. If you do not have the option to select Forefront Education in Clever, your district may not have yet added to your Clever instance. You may login to Forefront by navigating to our login page (app.forefront.education/login) and entering your school/district email.

Logging In with ClassLink

Select the Forefront Education icon on your ClassLink dashboard to log in directly to Forefront.

Your district’s IT department manages the Forefront Education app and your access through ClassLink.

Logging In with Google

Step 1: Open the Login Page

Step 2: Enter Your Email Address

Enter the email address associated with your school or district account and select Submit.

Step 3: Continue with Google

Select the option to continue with Google. Sign in using the Google account associated with your Forefront account.

Logging In with an Email and Password

Some schools and districts use an email address and password to access Forefront. This sign-in method is less common.

After entering your email address, you will be prompted to enter your password.

Setting or Resetting Your Password

Select Forgot Password if:

  • You are signing in with a password for the first time.

  • You have forgotten your password.

Forefront will send a password-reset link to your email address. Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see the message in your inbox.

The Forgot Password option only works when:

  • A Forefront user account already exists for your email address.

  • Your account has been configured to use an email and password.

Selecting Forgot Password cannot create a new user account. New accounts must be created by your school or district’s IT staff or the Forefront Support team.

Forefront does not store or have access to users’ passwords. Our team can send a new password-reset link, but we cannot view or retrieve your existing password.

Troubleshooting

Your Email Address Is Not Recognized

First, confirm that you entered your complete email address correctly. Check for:

  • Misspelled words

  • An incorrect email domain

  • Extra spaces before or after the email address

Spaces count as characters and may prevent Forefront from recognizing your account.

If your email address is correct, a Forefront account may not exist for that address. This can happen when:

  • An account has not yet been created for you.

  • Your email address has changed.

  • Your name has changed and your user information has not been updated.

Contact your school or district’s IT department to confirm that your Forefront account has been created and that the correct email address is associated with it.

You Cannot Find the Forefront App

If your account uses Clever or ClassLink but you do not see the Forefront Education app, contact your school or district’s IT department. They manage the applications available through your district’s Clever or ClassLink portal.

You Did Not Receive a Password-Reset Email

Confirm that you entered the correct email address and check your spam or junk folder.

If you still do not receive the email, your account may not be configured for password access, or a Forefront account may not exist for that email address.
