Log In for the League!

Logging in allows you to access the members-only portion of the website where you'll have access to online discussion forums and a membership directory. Here’s what to expect the first time you visit the site:

1. Click on the blue “Member Login” button in the upper right corner. The button is marked with yellow in this sample image:

2. Enter the username and password you received in your welcome email. Can't find the email? No problem! Click on "Forgot My Username/Password" and a new one will be sent to you. If you are using a secure computer, you can select "Remember me on this computer" to save your login info. (Do not select this option on a shared or public computer.)

Here's what the Login page looks like:

3. The website will walk you through the steps of logging in for the first time. These will include:

• Changing your password
• Reading and agreeing to Terms of Use and Privacy Options. (Please choose “I Agree” or “I Agree but do not send general emails.”) 
• The option to share information about your districts and interests
• Viewing a summary of your information

Once you've completed these steps you'll find yourself on Member Homepage. You'll see your name in the upper right corner of the page and a Member Resources option on the menu, as in the sample image below. 



You are logged in and ready to explore the site!

If you choose to be listed, you can add a photo and bio to your directory information to personalize it. When you’ve made your selections, scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Save.”
