Send Your Student to College with Beachwood Patch

The Patch Newsletter and smart phone apps are great ways for young scholars to keep up with news back home

There are two great ways to help your college student stay in touch with hometown news. Sign your student up for a Patch newsletter, and let them know about adding the Patch apps for iPhone and Android phones.  Did we mention it's all free? Your family scholar can keep up with local news, including the wide variety of events going on at their high schools and in their communities back home. Besides, we want to stay connected to some of our most loyal readers. Simply look at the top of this page to find the green button "Get the Patch Newsletter" and sign up college-bound students for the newsletter. Click here for more on our smart phone apps. Good luck to all college-bound students. Visit often!
