For the past week, we have shared our motivations for writing for Hechinger:
Why we report on specific topics;
Why we write newsletters that build community; and,
Why education journalism is essential to a thriving democracy
We do this work because of how important education has been to us personally - how we've seen its impact in our own lives and in the lives of the students and parents and educators that we cover.Â
We believe that inspirational and transformative education journalism is Hechinger's super power.
Thanks to the incredible support from readers like you, we are thrilled to announce that we have successfully met our fundraising goal!Â
Thank you for believing in the power of journalism. Your support of The Hechinger Report sustains us; it provides our journalists with the resources to visit schools nationwide and report back to you.
