To our Scholastic Customers: We know many of you have received invoices from a company calling itself "Scholastic School Supply," although you may not have received any materials or services from them. Please be aware that Scholastic School Supply is not affiliated with Scholastic Inc., the company educators, parents and kids have known since 1920 for our classroom magazines and other educational resources and services, our school book clubs and book fairs, as well as our popular children's books. Rather, it is a company that is using Scholastic's name and trademark without authorization. Scholastic recently became aware of this company and its actions, and has demanded that they cease and desist using Scholastic's name and trademark, which they have agreed to do, but they seemingly have not done so as of the date of this communication. In addition, Scholastic has been investigating this company and will continue to, and if we determine that this company is allegedly violating any other laws or regulations, we will take prompt, appropriate action. However, in the course of our investigation and through conversations with our customers who have brought this company to our attention, it appears that numerous schools and districts have referred "Scholastic School Supply" to various state attorneys general and the U.S. Postal Inspector in Nevada and New Jersey for further investigation. Please feel free to forward this email to colleagues in your school or district. |
