Times-Union Announces NIE Program

By Staff Report-

The Times-Union announces the beginning of a Newspaper In Education program in Kosciusko County.

The program brings newspapers into local school classrooms at no charge.

Basic literacy is a growing concern among educators in schools today.

Previous NIE experience shows that students find the newspaper - a current and community-based learning tool - to be a welcome addition to their textbooks. Teachers are able to create lesson plans that deal with current events and hometown news.

The program is funded through the financial good will of community businesses and individuals. We greatly appreciate our current sponsors, but help is still needed.

For sponsorship information, or if you are interested in using the newspaper in your classroom, call Jeremy Westerfield at 267-3111, Ext. 239. [[In-content Ad]]
