Newspapers In Education

 

September 2, 2008

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Your child's teacher has requested copies of the Wilson County News to be used as a resource in their classroom.  These newspapers are provided by the Newspapers In Education program.  We want to help encourage students to be lifelong learners and to read for fun as well as to learn facts.  While textbooks contain the learning material, the newspaper will often show relevant examples to bring subjects to life.  

Our goal for the Newspapers In Education program is to provide students an opportunity to learn more about the community while exercising their academic skills There is no charge to the student or the teacher for this weekly publication that is delivered to the school. The actual cost is $9.00 per student for one school year.  This cost is covered by donations to the NIE program at Wilson County News. 

We hope your student enjoys receiving the newspaper in the classroom.  You can learn more about the Newspapers In Education program by visiting our Website at www.wilsoncountynews.com or you may call the office at 830-216-4519.  We encourage you to use our free online resources for parents, students and teachers for homework help, arts and crafts and skills practice.  You may access these resources at :  http://www.wcn-online.com/nie/

Sincerely,

NIE Coordinator
Wilson County News
