Long-time educators James Hoffman, Ed.D., and his wife Joan Hoffman, M.A., started a retail supply business for teachers more than 40 years ago, but quickly realized there was a demand for at-home learning tools to help parents support and augment their children's classroom training. School Zone quickly became the industry leader in preschool through sixth grade workbooks and flashcards. School Zone is still family-owned and operated, with a commitment to excellence and community service. We are always adding new features and material to our products to match changing standards, emerging teaching methods, and overall best practices.
