Use of Epic Books at home

The free educator version is for use in the classroom or school library only. For use at home, students should be using the home version of Epic!. This is due to the Terms of Service and our contracts with publishers.

In order for students to access Epic! at home, a parent can purchase a subscription of Epic! for home and family use. Parents can try Epic! free for 30 days, and if they decide to subscribe, it costs $4.99/month  (after the first free month) for access to Epic!'s full library of books. 

To invite parents to use the home version of the Epic! app, please utilize the "Enable Home Access" feature in your teacher dashboard.
