Will The Fresno Bee’s Newspapers in Education program cost the school or me any money?
No! The Bee’s Newspapers in Education is a non-profit organization supported by donations, grants and fundraising. Free E-Bee editions and curriculum are available to a limited amount of teachers per program, depending upon what the sponsors have provided. If the grant has run out and you still wish to order papers, they are available at a very low educational rate.

What is the maximum amount of E-Bee editions I can order?
You may order as many as you need for your class or qualified literacy program.

What is the minimum amount of E-Bee editions I can order?
Our minimum order is 10 editions/licenses per day.

How many days of the week can I order E-Bee?
Class sets of E-Bee include Monday through Sunday access.

Is this program just for schools?
No. If you have a qualified literacy program off campus, such as a library, or if you have a qualified literacy program for adults, you may use this program.

What grade levels can receive E-Bee?
All grades K-12 and any qualified adult literacy program.

Are there any administrative procedures I need to follow after I start receiving access to E-Bee?
You will receive an affidavit every time you place an order. It will show the amount of total E-Bee editions/licenses you received for the time period. The affidavit needs to be signed and sent back to us by mail, fax or return online.
