We are seeking several collegiate journalism students with deadline reporting experience to write news stories or create short video clips or handle photography assignments for the daily online newsletter at the national conference of the American Association of School Administrators, February 12-14, 2026, at the convention center in Nashville.

Reporters and photographers will be assigned to cover speakers and panels on current topics relating to K-12 education. Those with experience in digital videography will be asked to create short video interviews with some of the national award winners or topical presenters.

Interns will receive bylines or credit lines on their work. We also will offer any student who completes the full three days (Thursday to Saturday, February 12-14) with us a small honorarium ($150) following the conference. Lunch will be provided. (Those able to commit to the afternoon of Wednesday, February 11 plus the following three days will receive $200.)

Ideal candidates for the writing positions are student journalists with successful deadline reporting experiences and interest in the subject of K-12 education. If a candidate is interested in both writing and photography, please indicate that on your application.

Candidates should send a cover letter describing relevant experiences and interests (and including contact information for at least two professional references), a resume and two published writing samples (online or print), event photos and/or video clips to jgoldman@aasa.org.
