The news is an educational tool, vital to our democratic republic.
We believe every student, educator, and parent should have access to trusted, engaging, and authentic news.
That's why we deliver interactive, multimedia news stories that provide the facts with rich context from diverse viewpoints.
Not only do we utilize an explanatory journalistic approach, but we make explicit connections between what is happening and why it matters to your civic and social life.
