TiP—Boston Teens in Print—continues to be the newspaper in Boston for and by teens in the city’s public high schools. In the more than seven years since TiP first published, Boston’s young people have demonstrated they have a lot to say about what’s going on in their world.
Take a look at our most recent issue, online at

WriteBoston and The Boston Globe – two organizations focused on celebrating the written word – have sponsored TiP since the spring of 2004. Knowing the energy, activism, intelligence, and talent of Boston teens, these groups wanted to create a special forum that would bring the varied voices of the city’s high school students together.
With continued help from The Boston Globe and WriteBoston, TiP teens produce this free publication five times a year. The Boston Globe delivers the newspaper to every public high school in the district, as well as to community centers and libraries.
