Member benefits

As a member of the Notebook, there are many benefits:

• Convenience: Whether you prefer digital over a hardcopy, both versions of your favorite education advocacy newspaper are available for members--and the print edition will be delivered to you by first class mail.
• More is Better: The Notebook is now published six times per year. This fall, the Notebook published a Fall Guide with information about District high schools and starting the year off right. Next spring there will be an additional edition of the paper.
• Stay in Touch: Current and former subscribers receive four one-of-a-kind postcards of Harvey Finkle's photographs.
• Endless Access: The Notebook has recently reenergized our web presence to become a multi-platform news service with extended reach in the communities we serve. Members can access unlimited online content, including the daily blog and breaking news.
