Each issue of the monthly Classroom Edition newspaper is packed with articles written by The Wall Street Journal’s experienced staff of reporters, and selected with an eye toward the interests of today’s teenagers. The range of topics illustrates the pervasive influence of business in our daily lives and the diversity of coverage in The Wall Street Journal, including careers, media, college preparation, marketing, personal finance and technology.

The objective is to use the news and trends of the business world to convey meaningful lessons that students can practice every day–in school, at home and in their communities.

Nearly one-third of the subscriptions are sponsored by corporations, organizations and individuals.

In addition to the student newspaper, the Classroom Edition program comprises extensive support materials for teachers and a vibrant Web site. The monthly Teacher Guide, included with each subscription, serves as a launching pad for thoughtful discussions and skill-building activities and assignments linked to each issue’s hottest articles.
