Log Out of Personal Gmail and Amazon Accounts

Important: Before you begin, please log out of all personal Gmail and Amazon accounts. You will order books using your student’s LAU email and an assigned Amazon Business account. This will allow LAU to pay for your student’s books upfront.

Log Into Gmail with LAU Email

Open a new tab and log into Gmail with your student’s LAU email account. If you have multiple students enrolled at LAU, please use your oldest student’s account.

Don’t know your student’s LAU email?

Every LAU student age 13+ has been given an LAU email address. These email addresses are used solely for laptop/Chromebook login and Amazon orders. This email address will be your student’s first and last name (as written on birth certificate) separated by a period:

Example: firstname.lastname@lautah.org

For students under the age of 13, the LAU email address will be assigned to the parent who enrolled them with the number 6 included:

Example: 6parentfirstname.parentlastname@lautah.org

When accessing the email account for the first time, you’ll need an LAU-supplied password. The password can be found in SIS with the books and materials information. 

After logging in to the email account for the first time, please create a new password.

If you have problems or the address does not yet exist contact books@lautah.org.

Forgot your email password?

Request a “password reset” at books@lautah.org.

Log into SIS

Open a new tab and log into your parent SIS account. Select the student you are purchasing items for and view the current book list.

Note: You must be logged into your student’s LAU email account and your parent account in SIS for the Amazon book ordering process to work.

Access (or Create) Your Student’s Amazon Business Account

With your student’s LAU email and SIS accounts open, you’re ready to log into Amazon Business.

From your student’s LAU email account click on the cluster of dots in the upper right-hand corner. Scroll and click on the Amazon Business icon. This should bypass account registration and take you directly to your student’s assigned Amazon account.

Remember, accounts for students under the age of 13 will use the assigned LAU parent email.

Sign Up for Amazon Smile – LAU

Amazon donates a portion of its proceeds to nonprofit organizations through the Amazon Smile program. As a nonprofit organization, LAU will receive a portion of sales to benefit our school. To link your student’s account to our Amazon Smile account, please do the following:

1. In the Amazon search bar, enter smile.amazon.com
2. Select “Leadership Academy of Utah”

Order Books and Materials

Navigate back to your open SIS window. (SIS might require you to re-enter your login credentials.)

1. In SIS, go to My Students > Classes to see which books and materials are needed. Order for Fall Semester only. Winter Semester items are approved after November 15th. LAU will not pay for optional or household items.
2. For each book or material listed, click the ISBN link shown. Links should take you to Amazon where you can review and add items to your cart. Do this for each needed item. If you have multiple students enrolled at LAU, use the same Amazon account to purchase books and materials. Simply review all of your students’ books and materials lists in SIS, adding each needed item to your cart.
3. After books and materials have been added to your cart, proceed to checkout. During the checkout process, you will be asked, “Purchasing for?” In the box provided, add the student name for whom you are logged into Amazon. If you are purchasing items for multiple students add the remaining student names in the “Comments for approver” box.
4. Select Continue.
5. Add your address, select your delivery preferences, and submit your order. 
6. LAU Amazon Business accounts are set up for “Pay by invoice.” Once your order is placed, LAU will review your order. Upon approval, LAU will pay the invoice and your order will be shipped from Amazon. You will be notified of any unapproved items.
