Hi Reader,
Education is everywhere in the news, but not always in depth. Headlines grab attention, but what’s often missing is understanding and context.
At The Hechinger Report, our mission is to close that gap. We go beyond test scores and political talking points to explain why systems succeed or fail, and what that means for students, teachers and families.
Our reporters spend months investigating what others overlook. They follow how decisions at the federal level ripple into classrooms across the country, unpack new research on learning and opportunity, and highlight where schools and colleges are finding real solutions and where they’re falling short.
Our deeply reported education stories are also re-published for free in an array of national, regional and local newspapers and magazines, aired on public radio, and listened to via podcasts. This helps us reach audiences in communities where many local newsrooms have reduced or eliminated education coverage altogether. Readers across the country may have come across a Hechinger story in their local paper without even realizing it.
If you value independent, in-depth reporting that reaches readers no matter their location or ability to pay, I hope you’ll join us with a gift during our end-of-year NewsMatch campaign. Every dollar you give will be matched, doubling your impact.
