During the pandemic there was an urgent need for downloadable, digital lessons and resources to support teachers and families learning from home. Now that the majority of our customers have transitioned back to in-person learning, we made the decision to close the Scholastic Canada Teachables website.

No, at this time orders can only be delivered to school or Board addresses.
