REPORTER / RESEARCHER

The Grade is looking for a part-time reporter / researcher to help grow The Grade’s work covering education news.

The reporter / researcher (4-5 hours a week) would help track K12 education news coverage nationwide and in three major metropolitan areas, and would also help write monthly roundups and the weekly newsletter. We’re anticipating paying between $40-90 per hour, depending on the person’s background and experience.

This gig might be good for someone who’s freelancing but wants a steady part-time gig, or someone who’s deeply interested in how education journalism shapes public understanding of schools. It’d be great to work with people who know education journalism, though beat experience and a journalism degree are not at all required.

An independent grant-funded effort to support high-quality education news coverage, The Grade produces a weekly column or essay about hot topics in education journalism plus a weekly newsletter featuring the best education journalism of the week. Read more about The Grade here.
