From watching the money to exposing security and safety concerns, three veteran reporters will talk about developing ideas and writing stories that parents and community members can’t ignore and public officials wish they could. We’ll talk about digging deep to tell better stories -- even on deadline -- and using local and national data to show disparities and wrongdoing with an eye for those pesky red flags. The discussion also will include ways to monitor school leadership and governance, areas that can help parents and voters make informed decisions at the polls. We’ll also review data that every education reporter should have on hand – and discuss how to fight that dreaded F-word, FERPA!
