Connect your students with real world learning experiences by using The Post-Standard as a "living textbook" in your classroom

Newspapers are living textbooks. Newspapers develop reading, math, social studies and language skills while exploring the issues of today's world. Newspapers are so valuable to classrooms that the New York State Board of Regents treats newspapers as textbooks.

Ordering class sets of newspapers through The Post-Standard's Newspaper in Education (NIE) program will allow each of your students to have his or her own paper to read, use to complete activities and use for discussion. Through NIE, newspapers can also be the most affordable resource in your classroom. There are even business sponsors who can provide newspapers for your classroom at no charge to you.

The Post-Standard launched its NIE program in 1985. The program helps teachers, in all settings, to use the newspaper as an educational resource. Explore this web site and discover how NIE offers educators, students and parents many opportunities to use the newspaper as a fun way to enhance learning.
