MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTIONS (for each division for 2024-2025):

Intermediate School

print subscription to The Week Junior magazine (https://theweekjunior.com/

Middle School

print subscription to The Week Junior magazine (https://theweekjunior.com/

The US subscribes to The Week (geared to older and more advanced readers), and MS families can subscribe to it (https://theweek.com/) instead for their student when they feel they are ready.

Upper School

(1) A print subscription to The Week magazine (https://theweek.com/)

(2) A print subscription to Consumer Reports Magazine (https://www.consumerreports.org/membership/).  1 year is $35 from the non-profit Consumers Union. They feature a $59 all access membership (web and print), and you just have to look carefully to find “the print only” option on the page to join. It is a powerful and valuable resource for economic and personal finance issues that face families and our country, and maintaining a subscription would be a shrewd move as students become independent adults faced with an array of ongoing decisions regarding money and purchases
