Summary
Scholastic Inc.
enterprise legacy
SCHOLASTIC is the corporate network of Scholastic Inc., the New York children's book and educational-media publisher (Harry Potter's US publisher, Clifford, the school book fairs and book clubs). Despite the name, this is a publisher's enterprise AS, not an education or research network.
What it's used for
RIS sees 6 announced IPv4 prefixes carrying 1,792 addresses, no IPv6, and only 3 observed neighbours. That combination is the signature of a corporate edge, not a service provider: a network selling transit or hosting at this size would show tens or hundreds of BGP neighbours, because peering breadth is what such a business is made of. Three neighbours means a couple of upstream carriers and a multihomed office/data-centre footprint.
The announced space is a contiguous run inside 199.19.136.0 through 199.19.143.0, plus a single outlying 208.205.75.0/24. Roughly 1,800 addresses is enough for corporate egress, mail, VPN concentrators and a modest set of public-facing services, and far too little to run a consumer product at Scholastic's reach. The customer-facing web properties are almost certainly served from commercial CDN and cloud platforms, as they are for most publishers of this era.
Notable
Scholastic holds a second, higher-numbered ASN as well, AS14199 — a common pattern where a company picks up an extra number through an acquisition or a second site rather than renumbering.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-31, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 447 networks and 1,845 prefixes, as published 2026-10-31. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
