![<em>The Atlantic</em> Announces Free Digital Subscriptions for All U.S. Public High Schools”></p>
<p>Starting today, The Atlantic is offering every public high school in the United States free digital access to its journalism and 168-year archive. All public high schools and districts can register with The Atlantic to give their students, teachers, and administrators unlimited access to TheAtlantic.com while on campus at no cost: all articles, full magazine issues, podcasts and audio articles, Atlantic Games, and the complete archive.</p>
<p>The Atlantic is already widely used as a teaching resource and read by millions of educators and students––and its archive contains landmark essays from many of history’s greatest writers and thinkers. This new offering removes financial and technical barriers for public high schools and introduces The Atlantic’s journalism to new generations of readers. Since launching an academic group subscription in July 2023, The Atlantic has enrolled more than 200 colleges, universities, and high schools in this program, reaching more than 1.2 million readers.</p>
<p>“It’s critical for as many students and educators as possible to have access to informed, independent, fact-based journalism,” said Megha Garibaldi, the chief growth officer of The Atlantic. “An informed citizenry is essential to our democracy. As we continue to grow The Atlantic, and the resource-intensive reporting and writing we publish, we want to ensure it’s available to new generations of readers.”</p>
<p>The Atlantic has been significantly expanding its journalism and reach in the past decade. This year alone, The Atlantic has added nearly 50 journalists to its staff; launched broader coverage of defense, national security, technology, health, and science; began publishing two more print issues annually; and introduced a Games hub. It has a record number of subscriptions—more than 1.3 million—after many years of continuous and dramatic subscription growth.</p>
