The New York Times Company is partnering with Verizon to
provide free nytimes.com access
to over seven million students and teachers in Title I high schools across the
nation and middle schools within the Verizon Innovative Learning program. The
access will also include curated educational content from The Times’s Learning Network, an educational resource
that includes articles, photos, videos, illustrations, graphs and podcasts from
The Times.
Title I
schools are institutions where 40 percent of the student population belong to
low-income households.
High school
faculty and students will receive full digital access to The Times when
connected to their school’s network, and middle school teachers will be able to
access Learning Network content through the Verizon Innovative Learning
Connections portal. The Verizon
Innovative Learning program works to empower under-resourced Title
1 middle schools with free technology, internet access, and a STEM-infused
curriculum to help inspire the next generation of technologists, entrepreneurs,
innovators and more, according to the Times.
