What is Newspapers in Education
Newspaper in Education is a program that embraces:
• the newspaper industry
• participating school systems
• generous corporate, business organizational and individual sponsors
This partnership allows educators to use newspapers as real-time textbooks to teach:
• Language Arts, Math and Science
• Character Education, Citizenship and Current Events
• Life Skills, Literacy, and Critical Thinking
Through newspaper use in the classroom, students become informed citizens who are aware of local interests, national issues, and international events. Student news-readers develop lifelong habits that serve them long after they leave the classroom to become tomorrow's consumers and workforce.

These free papers are paid for and supported by donations from companies and subscribers like you.
The Creston News Advertiser matches your donation, making your money work even harder. Teachers praise the NIE program for its ability to reach students in an enjoyable and informative way that is more interesting than traditional teachings.
