With the many challenges that this school year is bringing, we wanted to remind you that the Las Vegas Review-Journal Newspapers In Education (NIE) program remains available for the 2020 – 2021 school year to you and your students, at no cost, through the current school closures.
The education of our young students is an extremely high priority, and the Las Vegas Review-Journal NIE program will continue to offer at no cost to all educators and students with the electronic edition of the newspaper for educational purposes along with educational resources.
· The program provides news and information to promote literacy in an interactive way.
· The program reaches over 45,000 students daily with a no-cost educational subscription to the e-Edition (digital replica of the printed newspaper) available 7 days a week.
· The Las Vegas Review-Journal NIE website includes lesson plans, special supplements and many resources for teachers, students and parents.
· By using this resource as an educational tool, students score 10% higher on standardized tests.
All of this is available on our website www.lasvegasnie.com (registration required).
Use of the program enhances the quality of student education and civic engagement through this challenging time and with the coming elections, I am also including two lesson plans that you will find useful.
