Are you a motivated undergraduate or grad student interested in telling the story of education in America? Come work with us at Chalkbeat as a summer intern. Our newsroom has bureaus in eight cities — Chicago, Denver, Detroit, Indianapolis, Memphis, Newark, New York City, and most recently, Philadelphia — plus a national team. We cover the effort to improve schools for all children, especially students in the United States who have historically lacked access to a quality education.

Incorporate data journalism, polls, and social engagement.
Attend weekly skill-building sessions.
Become an integral part of a dynamic, diverse newsroom. Our interns interview, report, write, and learn — they don’t make coffee or file paperwork.

Here are some of the stories our past interns filed. (links on Chalkbeat job posting at Chalkbeat.org/careers)
