Science News. Something in every issue is sure to catch their 
attention. There's also a Science News for Kids 
http://www.sciencenewsforkids.org/ but why not pay them the 
compliment of assuming they can read the grown-ups' magazine?

I've been reading Science News since elementary school. I just 
bestowed a pile of recent issues on some high school kids in Trenton 
NJ who take part in a wonderful program, ScienceMentors 
http://www.sciencementors.org/

As a science/medicine editor and curator, I often recommend the 
magazine as a model of expository writing. (I'm sure it has shaped my 
own.)
