SNHS
Students at Two Rivers Public Charter School in Washington, D.C., explore Science News magazine in their classroom.

Launched in 2015, the Science News in High Schools, SNHS, program brings Science News magazine to high schools across the United States and around the world. As part of a larger commitment to creating a more scientifically literate society, the program offers teachers and students access to the latest in-depth reporting on science, technology and health topics, transforming how students and educators interact with science in the classroom.

Participating high schools receive:

  • 10 print copies of each Science News magazine issue published during the academic year
  • Digital access to Science News and Science News for Students archives
  • Digital Educator Guides supplementing each issue
  • E-newsletters highlighting SNHS content
  • Access to an online educator community

Highlights from the 2018–2019 Science News in High Schools academic year:

  • 4,700 schools participated in the 2018–2019 academic year
  • 4 million students had access to SNHS
  • 97% of teachers reported that SNHS is useful in their classroom
  • 15,000 high school educators received SNHS program content

This program has allowed my students at our tiny, rural, high-poverty high school to connect with current science research. This has had a big impact on students’ interest in science and possible STEM careers.
