Seventh Year in Print for Traditional-Values Children’s Newspaper
The Current Events is reaching out to Christian schools, homeschooling families, and other Americans as it enters its seventh year. The newspaper, founded and published by school teacher Suri Roth and her husband, Mendy, has been successful with kids and parents alike because it reflects and supports wholesome values while it educates and informs.
“It is the kind of educational tool I want in my children’s classrooms; in fact, it is the kind of newspaper I am proud to have in my home,” says Mrs. Roth. “The Current Events features informative and fun-to-read articles on American and world events, economics, science news, American history, world leaders and more without conflicting with biblical mores. In contrast to many, many of today’s mainstream educational materials, the images and text in our newspaper are carefully chosen and developed by educational experts and journalists in order to educate, not indoctrinate.
“We believe that children should be free to be children. We also believe that parents, have the right and responsibility to teach their kids morals and values- especially those in conflict with today’s mainstream culture. Therefore The Current Events does not report on any news concerning sexuality, theory of evolution, and religion.
“We give young minds the chance to develop perspective and understand the importance of context as they explore the news and the concepts behind the news. I thank God that we have the opportunity to help children understand the world we live in while supporting family values.”
“I am pleased to notice you did not “spin” the news.

The Current Events makes learning come alive in a way that textbooks can’t – even after school hours. Each article targets a specific reading level so you can help your child learn to love to read. Even very hesitant readers can learn to enjoy reading with our photo- essay features. More advanced readers will love to get in-the-know with our challenging news and world- events articles, political cartoons, maps, charts, and illustrations. Students can challenge themselves as their fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension skills improve.
The Current Events prepares students for standardized tests and helps them hone their reading, comprehension, analytical, and interpretative skills. It also contains a Teacher’s Guide for educators and/or parents that shows how to make the most of each issue. The Teacher’s Guide features a multi-activity lesson plan which focuses on building the skills most important to your child, whether at home or in the classroom.
