Shipping policy
Thank you for your order! Here's what you need to know about shipping and delivery.
Processing Time
Orders are typically processed and shipped within 3-5 business days after purchase (excluding weekends and holidays).
Please note:
- During busy seasons (such as holiday sales and special promotions), processing times may be extended. We'll keep you updated via email if your order will take longer than expected.
- Pre-orders require additional processing time that varies by product. Estimated ship dates for pre-orders are clearly communicated on individual product pages and at checkout.
Shipping Methods & Carriers
We primarily ship via USPS (United States Postal Service), but reserve the right to use other carriers (such as UPS or FedEx) at our discretion to ensure your order arrives safely and efficiently.
At checkout, you'll be able to select from available shipping speeds. We reserve the right to modify the carrier or shipping method as needed to best serve your delivery needs.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are calculated individually for each order based on:
- Package weight
- Shipping destination
- Selected shipping speed
Your exact shipping cost will be calculated and displayed at checkout before you complete your purchase.
Free Shipping: We offer free shipping promotions at various times throughout the year with minimum order requirements. These promotions and thresholds may vary by season and will be clearly displayed on our website when available.
Delivery Areas
We currently ship to addresses within the continental United States only.
Digital Products
Digital products are delivered instantly via email immediately after your purchase is complete. Check your inbox (and spam folder) for your download links and access information.
Bundles with Physical + Digital Products
For curriculum bundles that include both physical and digital components:
- Digital materials are delivered instantly via email after purchase
- Physical materials will ship separately according to our standard processing timeline (3-5 business days)
You can start using your digital materials right away while your physical products are being prepared for shipment!
Order Tracking & Confirmation
Order Confirmation: You'll receive an email confirmation immediately after placing your order with your order details.
Shipping Confirmation: Once your order ships, you'll receive a separate email with tracking information (when available through the carrier). You can use this tracking number to monitor your package's progress.
Lost, Stolen, or Damaged Packages
Postal Insurance: Shipments include insurance through the shipping carrier. If your package is lost or damaged in transit, we're happy to provide the necessary information for you to file a claim with the carrier. However, the responsibility for filing insurance claims rests with the customer.
Delivered but Missing: Once a package shows "delivered" via tracking, it is considered successfully delivered. We are not responsible for packages that are lost, stolen, or damaged after delivery confirmation. We recommend having packages delivered to a secure location or using carrier options like signature confirmation for added security.
Incorrect Address
Please ensure your shipping address is correct when placing your order. We are not responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses provided by the customer. If a package is returned to us due to an incorrect address, you will be responsible for the cost of reshipping.
