  Is there an account option for individual teachers in public schools? I would like to install plugins, but the business account is a little pricey. Thanks.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

  No there isn’t. If you want to use plugins you must upgrade to the Business Plan.

  You might also check out Edublogs https://edublogs.org/ which is a completely separate hosting company from WordPress.com. (NAYY)

  Since the only visible link in this thread is the one I added to Edublogs, I’d like to understand why this thread was flagged with “spammy link”.

  Edublogs is a completely legit WordPress host for educators and has been recommended in these forums previously.

  Hello there,

  Just on the above – please be mindful that this would be using self-hosted WordPress, which is different to using WordPress.com.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
