Yes! If you are a parent homeschooling your PreK-6th grade child (ages 4-12) and that child does not attend another educational facility, you are eligible to participate in the BOOK IT! Homeschool Program. Homeschool support and co-op groups, where the student does not attend full-time, are not eligible. When you submit a new enrollment request, there is a 3 day review period before your account becomes active.   For example, if you enroll on a Monday, your account will become active on Thursday (72 hours later).

Please note that our homeschool program is all digital and you will be tracking and rewarding your students through our digital dashboard. Enroll now and get started!

We have created a user guide to walk you through tracking and rewarding your students.

Awarded digital certificates will be sent to the email you used to enroll, and you may need to check your spam/junk folder to see if they are sent there. You also may choose to print them, show the certificate to the Pizza Hut team member on your phone/smart device, or place an online order using the digital codes. The digital codes can be found on the certificate or in the Reward area of your dashboard.

Homeschool students are added at the time of enrollment. If you need to make adjustments to your student count or address information, please contact the BOOK IT! Team.

Each program year from October to March, teachers set monthly reading goals for the students in their class. Number of minutes, number of pages or number of books – they all work! Also, parents can read with kids not yet reading independently. When a student reaches their monthly reading goal, the teacher rewards the student with a Reading Award Certificate for a free, one-topping Personal Pan Pizza® from Pizza Hut®. Students may earn a total of 6 Reading Award Certificates each program year.

Students may redeem one Reading Award Certificate per month, and the certificate must be used to reward the student who earned it. The student must be present. When a child redeems their Reading Award Certificate with Pizza Hut, they are celebrated with a one-topping Personal Pan Pizza. 

There are two ways to redeem Digital Certificates.

Option 1 – Click on the link in your BOOK IT! Reward email

1.    Click on the code link in the BOOK IT! Reward email.
2.    This will take you to the Pizza Hut website to build your student’s Personal Pan Pizza.
3.    If you are not already assigned to your nearest Pizza Hut location, select delivery or carryout and enter your address to find your local store.
4.    You will then be taken to the BOOK IT! Pizza Builder.
5.    Once you build your one-topping pizza it will be added to your cart and you can sign in to your account.
6.    If you have more than one student with a certificate, you can click on the link in their email next.
7.    This will open a new window for you to build the next pizza, but don’t worry, all of your pizzas will be in your cart at the end.  Note that delivery minimums apply.
8.    Please remember, only 1 certificate per month per child can be redeemed.

Troubleshooting Tips

•    Certificates expire 30 days from the date issued by the teacher – if your certificate is expired you will get the message “We’re sorry, the coupon you entered has expired”
•    If you accidently click on the same reward code more than once you will get the message “Sorry, but the deal you are trying to add (BOOK IT! Free 1-Topping Personal Pan Pizza) is already in your cart, and is available only once per order”
•    If you click on the link and it does not go directly to the BOOK IT! Pizza Builder or you get the message “Sorry, something has gone awry”, please clear the cookies on your computer, click the link again and select Delivery or Carryout prior to signing in to your account.

Option 2 – Enter Coupon codes in your cart at www.pizzahut.com

1.    Visit www.pizzahut.com to enter your order (please do not use the Pizza Hut app).

3.    Click the cart icon in the top right corner.
4.    Enter the serialized code in the “Coupon Code” box (please note that if you are copying and pasting the code, you’ll want to double-check that there’s not an extra space at the end).

8.    Repeat for each certificate you are redeeming – remember, only 1 certificate per child per month can be redeemed.

No. Group redemptions and parties are strictly prohibited. An important part of the BOOK IT! program is individual recognition of your students for meeting their reading goals and our team members are trained to provide individual recognition.

No. While many other groups and programs share our love of reading, BOOK IT! is only open to the classroom teachers who meet the criteria outlined in the eligibility information. Afterschool, daycare, tutoring and programs offered at residential addresses are not eligible. You can encourage schools in your community to enroll by directing them to our website.
