Join JSR Today!

Applications for the Autumn 2016 Semester of the J Student Reporters (JSR) program are due on June 10.

Don't miss your chance to join a growing community of motivated and talented high school student reporters!

JSR is a multi-faceted program aimed at challenging students to do more than just become good writers. The program strives to push even the best student writers to be the best they can be while providing them with the academic freedom to explore their own interests and passions and see their work published in the pages of a large national newspaper.

Students also participate in a revision and review process that includes hands-on interaction with seasoned student editors and chief editor and an experienced program coordinator who has been working as an educator. The program has an international base of students, including members from mnay US states as well as foreign countries including South Korea and Mexico.

Veterans of JSR have been tremendously successful.

Students have landed at top universities including Harvard, Princeton, the US Naval Academy, the University of Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, NYU, USC, and more. Many have reported that JSR equipped them with skills to help them succeed at their chosen schools.
