IndyKid reporters have their work read by people all over the country? In the Kid Reporter Program workshops, students are guided on an in-depth exploration of media literacy and learn how to become critical journalists. Working one-on-one with professional journalists, editors, writers, and educators, students take part in every aspect of producing the IndyKids newspaper from topic selection, researching and writing, content production, interviewing, on-the-ground reporting, editing and finalizing their work for publication, and finally, distributing the paper to a growing, national audience of their peers. The workshops take place in New York City from noon - 3 pm and are open to all kids ages 10-13. Spring Workshops for the May 2017 issue:
Saturday, March 18
Saturday, March 25
Saturday, April 8 The registration fee for each workshop cycle is $150 per student and we also offer scholarships.
