SUMMARY:Scholastic Journalism Week
DESCRIPTION:Press Under Pressure\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Journalism Education Association will celebrate Scholastic Journalism Week Feb. 23-27\, 2026. This year’s theme is “Press Under Pressure”. \nIn an era of contested truth and rampant misinformation\, “Press Under Pressure” highlights the vital role of student journalists as they navigate free expression\, institutional oversight and ethical reporting. Despite facing censorship\, scrutiny and limited resources\, young reporters demonstrate resilience and a deep commitment to truth and civic responsibility. More than a theme\, it’s a call to support and protect their right to report fearlessly\, as their work strengthens our democracy. \nThroughout the week\, and throughout the year\, we invited you to use hashtags #SJW2026 and #PressUnderPressure when you share works of journalism from your staff\, reminding your community of the importance of scholastic journalism. \nSchools will be able to submit to be featured on JEA social media during Scholastic Journalism Week 2026. Submission information will be available soon. Staff will email a certificate to featured schools’ administrators to acknowledge and celebrate the great work you are doing. \n#SJW2026 #PressUnderPressure\nLearn more on the Journalism Education Association website.
