Educator Spotlight
"The Fishtank ELA texts are so representative of not only the kids at PJK, but all different types of children, from all different countries, of all different abilities. One of the greatest things I see is that kids are just consuming texts."

"I know my students will leave with a greater sense of autonomy and empowerment about the books that come into their hands."
