The Norwood News and Mount Hope Monitor are running a free journalism program for Bronx high school students.
Classes will begin on Feb. 3 and run on Wednesday afternoons from 4 to 6 p.m. for 12 weeks.
Students will learn the fundamentals of writing, reporting, and photojournalism through classroom instruction, and through hands-on reporting in their own neighborhoods.
We will take them on field trips, and they will learn about community activism and civic responsibility, how their neighborhoods work (or don't), who has power, who doesn't and why.
Students' stories and photographs will be published in our youth paper, Bronx Youth Heard.
