Not only are the schools downloading Moby’s tips for creating an emergency Contingency Learning Plan, but they’re getting free access to MobyMax’s entire suite of e-learning software since the company made it available at no cost on March 6, 2020.

Moby’s comprehensive curriculum spans Math, ELA, Science, and Social Studies for students in grades K-8 and meets the needs of struggling students as well as those working on grade level and beyond. MobyMax is the most awarded edtech company in the U.S., earning 110 education industry awards in the last two years, including the CODiE award for Best Education Cloud-Based Solution and the 2019 Tech Edvocate Award for Best Global EdTech Company.
