2013 Single-Topic News or Feature for Education-Only Outlet Second Prize: Chalkbeat New York Staff

“Education Issues in NYC Mayor’s Race”

Judges’ Comments

“Chalkbeat had the mayor’s race covered. If education mattered to you as a New York voter, you had to go no further than Chalkbeat to find where the candidates stood, what was happening in the race and who was likely to become the next school’s chancellor. Thorough reporting combined with political savvy.”

“Really nice and inventive work here from Chalkbeat as it picks apart all aspects of the mayor and chancellor tide-turning in NYC. The piece on “our five picks” is especially strong.”
