Implementation and rollout
What it takes to run WeWillWrite across a school or a district, and who does what.

Implementation and rollout
Nothing to install
WeWillWrite runs in the browser on the Chromebooks, iPads, laptops and phones your schools already own. Students join each session with a code rather than an account, so nothing is installed on any device and there is no roster to sync. A session holds up to 100 students at once. Students give a first and last name, visible to the teacher and never to classmates.
The network requirement is four domains: wewillwrite.com, portal.wewillwrite.com, id.wewillwrite.com and join.wewillwrite.com, plus license.wewillwrite.com where licenses are managed centrally. A self-check at connect.wewillwrite.com confirms whether a school's network is ready, managed Chromebooks included, and shows how to fix anything blocked.
Teacher accounts
Teachers create their own accounts with an email address and a password. School or personal email both work. There is no single sign-on. Accounts support multi-factor authentication and passwords are protected with industry-standard hashing. Because students join with a code, teacher accounts are the only identities your district reviews.
Who does what
Your district chooses the schools and the teachers, allows the four domains and decides who holds the licenses.
We set up the licenses, onboard your staff, deliver the professional development and support your teachers directly. Teacher questions come to our support team, not to your help desk.
How fast this can move
A pilot can start the day you decide. No purchase order, no payment: a teacher opens one for the school, colleagues join by invitation and everyone has full access for 90 days.
A purchase can run start to finish in one sitting, without talking to us. Quote, payment by card and teacher invitations are all self-serve, so teachers can be up and running the same day.
A purchase order does not slow this down. The moment one is uploaded, teacher invitations open and each teacher gets a seat as they join, while the invoice runs its course.
The paperwork is no slower. The standard DPA is signed online, using Student Data Privacy Consortium frameworks, and agreements are already in place in 26 states including Texas, California, New York, Florida and Illinois.
Three ways to roll out
One classroom
A teacher signs up on the free plan and runs a session that week, inside one lesson. It needs no approval and no purchase.
One school
Three or more teachers get full access for 90 days, free. They keep their own classes and their own subjects, so the pilot shows how structured social writing runs in real schedules rather than in a demo. At the end, the school receives a written report on what happened across those classrooms, and you license only the teachers who continue. If the school stops there, teachers keep the free plan and the writing is retained, ready again whenever a license is activated.
A district
Start with a pilot in the schools you choose, then extend on a volume license as each school is ready. Licenses are priced per teacher, so a phased rollout costs what each phase uses. Nothing has to happen district-wide on one date.Professional development
Professional development is not a line item. When a school requests a live session, we arrange one at no cost to the district, delivered by a practicing teacher who works in your state.
Most teachers run their first session without training. For a staff meeting or a PD day, the PD resources page is free to anyone and holds presentation slides, a one-page guide, an FAQ sheet and a challenge set built for adults.
Licenses and cost
Licenses are priced per teacher, not per student, on volume, and include priority support. The number purchased is the number of teachers who will use it. One person manages the licenses at license.wewillwrite.com for a school or for a district, so a curriculum lead or an IT admin hands out access rather than each teacher buying alone.
Payment is by debit, credit or purchasing card, by ACH or by check for five or more licenses. Purchase orders go to support@wewillwrite.com, with a tax exemption certificate if you hold one. A W-9 is available. Quotes at wewillwrite.com/getquote.
Accessibility
WeWillWrite is tested to WCAG 2.2 Level AA and a VPAT is available to download. Teachers can pause any timed phase and extend the reading phase to 10 minutes.
Support
Anyone can email support@wewillwrite.com, paying or not, and questions are usually answered quickly. School licenses add priority support.
Data practices, security and compliance are documented in the Trust Center, including what is held for each student and for how long.
Book a meeting and we will walk you through what a rollout looks like in your schools, with your numbers.
