Media Organization: Scholastic Parent & Child magazine

Company Description

Scholastic Parent & Child magazine knows that motherhood is a role of a lifetime. But we also understand that mom defines herself as so much more. Our creative content helps mom nurture, support, and advocate for her whole family both at home and in school while also providing the woman inside with inspired thinking to meet her own needs. Each issue features practical articles on child development, health and well-being, classroom success, community connection, travel, food, and activities to do together all written in a lively and reassuring voice that respects her time, judgment, and wisdom.

Job Description

Our interns are an important part of the editorial team and contribute to the print magazine, website and iPad app. We’re looking for someone who is enthusiastic, detail-oriented, organized and hard-working. Duties include writing small pieces for the print magazine, interviewing celebrities for our website, requesting and tracking product samples, conducting story research, attending photo shoots or press events as needed, and providing general support to the editors.
