Literacy Programs for PreK–12 from Scholastic Education

Every moment has the potential to be a learning moment.

From classrooms to kitchen tables, learning can happen at any time. Our literacy work begins in schools then connects to homes and communities, because when literacy is everywhere, students can achieve anything.

Where We Started. How We’ve Grown.

For more than 100 years, Scholastic Education has remained committed to helping every child reach their full potential through literacy. In that time, the research of how children learn to read has evolved, and we’ve evolved alongside it.


 Today, we specialize in helping you drive successful outcomes through evidence-based literacy programs and professional learning services in five key areas:

Structured Literacy

Summer Learning

Early Childhood

Welcoming and Engaging Classrooms

Family and Community Engagement

The Research That Guides Us
