The article should be geared towards parents and/or educators of children anywhere from early childhood through high school. All articles should be approximately 500 words. It is best to avoid using slang or idioms that might not be understood by all readers. Be careful when referring to dates or events in the future, as there could be elapsed time between submission and publishing.

Please send all article submissions to editor@schoolbox.com. The e-mail should also contain a brief description of your background, as well as your complete contact information. If your article is chosen, we will contact you before going to print. Besides being published and the almost certain personal fame that will most likely result, all writers will receive a School Box Gift Card for any article published.

This is going to be an on-going opportunity—so submit something whenever inspiration strikes (or whenever you need a new bulletin board set and don’t want to shell out the cash for it).

The tremendously fascinating legal-speak: Submission does not obligate The School Box to use or publish any submitted entry. All articles are subject to editorial changes. All federal, state and local laws and regulations apply. Entrant certifies that any submitted writing is an original, unpublished work that will not infringe on the privacy or intellectual property rights of any third party. Entrant grants to The School Box worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free license to edit, publish and republish at any time Entrant’s submitted writing, in any and all media for any lawful purpose without further permission, notice or compensation.

Enter: The School Box’s new online newsletter and blog. Our goal is to present relevant, pithy information on all things related to education. We want to be a source you can trust for innovative learning ideas, fresh classroom tips and parenting inspiration. In essence, we want to throw you a life preserver in the tide of cyberspace!

Even better, we want to give you a voice. You have good ideas, and we want to hear them. And then we want to publish them. And then we want to reward you for sharing. If you submit an article on parenting or education that ends up being published on one of our sites or in our print publications, we’ll give you a School Box giftcard: just a small pat on the back for your great thoughts. All you have to do is click “Write for us!” at the top of this page to learn more. (Please pass this along to anyone you know who may be interested, as well!)

Check back often! We’ll be adding fresh content weekly.

Sincerely,
Elizabeth Cossick, M.Ed.
