The Sun Chronicle Newspaper in Education Program (NIE) is an educational partnership between the newspaper, local businesses and participating local school systems.
The NIE program provides area schools with the newspapers and teaching materials at no cost
The goal of NIE is to promote literacy, global awareness and a sense of civic responsibility. Students use The Sun Chronicle as a "living textbook" - an exciting way to motivate students and bridge the gap between classroom learning and the "real world".
