About Us

The High School National Ad Network is part of the ASNE High School Journalism Initiative. ASNE is a non-profit journalism association with an exceptional track record of growing quality scholastic media in all 50 states.

Building successful high school papers requires editorial excellence and a solid business plan. A good advertising base is key to that.

The ad network connects advertisers with the coveted teen audience in a hassle-free way. Our network is large enough -- 904 high schools serving more than 1,457,000 students -- that we are able to deliver a major cross-section of the audience -- not just small pieces of it -- in an uncluttered environment. Advertisers are able to choose their target audience by community type, demography or ZIP code. Our online application makes "what-if" scenarios quick and easy. And our electronic delivery and tracking system makes real-time monitoring possible.

We already have a relationship with the schools and newspaper advisers -- training teachers, making grants, bringing partners together, hosting newspapers online. Administrators know us. The student newspaper is part of the school's curriculum and lifeblood, not an intrusion.

The school newspapers are the financial beneficiaries. As a tightly-run, non-profit entity, ASNE takes just enough overhead to cover basic expenses. Seventy-five percent of every dollar spent goes to the high school newspaper that runs the ad.
