Give It to Me Straight: Terms of Use

When you create an account, you agree to these simple rules:

1. For Your School/District Only
   Catalyst is for your subscribed school, district, or partner team. You can use all the tools, resources, and pathways with your colleagues and staff.

2. Don’t Share Outside Your Membership
   You may not sell, rebrand, or share Catalyst resources with other schools, districts, or organizations who aren’t members.

3. Don’t Copy or Resell
   All Catalyst materials belong to reDesign. You can’t copy them to create your own products or services.

4. Be Responsible With Your Account
   Accounts are for your team only. Don’t share your login with people outside your organization.

5. Stay Professional
   Use Catalyst resources for learning, planning, and leading change in education—not for anything outside that purpose.

If these rules are broken, we may suspend or end your access without a refund. If copyright is violated, we may pursue legal action.

By signing up, you’re agreeing to respect these rules and help us keep Catalyst a strong, supportive community for schools and districts.
