SCHOLASTIC and associated logos are trademarks and/or registered trademarks of Scholastic Inc. Scholastic Mission Statement To encourage the intellectual and personal growth of all children, beginning with literacy.

Scholastic Credo We strive to present the clearest explanation of current affairs and contemporary thought, and to encourage literary appreciation and expression consistent with the understanding and interests of young people at all levels of learning.

Scholastic pledges to uphold the basic freedoms of all individuals; we are unalterably opposed to any system of government or society that denies these freedoms. We oppose discrimination of any kind on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, age, or national origin.

Good citizens may honestly differ on important public questions. We believe that all sides of the issues of our times should be fairly discussed—with deep respect for facts and logical thinking—in classroom magazines, books, and other educational materials used in schools and homes.
