Cricket Media, ThinkCERCA Partner on Literacy Tools

Cricket Media and ThinkCERCA have extended a partnership designed to help improve student literacy.

As part of the partnership, educational texts from Cricket will be paired with ThinkCERCA's literacy platform. Curriculum designers at ThnikCERCA will also use Cricket's Concierge Service to find curated content for the company's learning framework.

"I am delighted by ThinkCERCA's decision to expand our current partnership," said Katya Andresen, Cricket Media CEO, in a prepared statement. "We have worked together for two years to provide unique and high quality content for their programs and by extending our partnership, we serve more classrooms with richer learning experiences across the world."

"Working with Cricket Media gives ThinkCERCA the opportunity to expand our network, access valuable content and build stronger lesson plans for teachers around the country," added Eileen Murphy Buckley, CEO of ThinkCERCA. "Our partnership builds off our robust library of authentic texts and content as we work to create a lasting education product that provides every student with the skills they need to succeed on tests, in college and beyond."
