Same here. The kids will not pick up a magazine, not Rolling Stone, not Teen Vogue, not Entertainment Weekly. The staff uses certain magazines for class, but yes, we are slashing our print periodicals budget.

I am in a high school and I find very few students read magazines! Even those that you would expect to be very popular such as Seventeen or Sports Illustrated go unread from month to month. I spent nearly $800 on periodicals for the past
two years and I am thinking of redirecting those funds towards books.
