Education Reporter

The Casper Star-Tribune, the statewide voice of Wyoming with a reputation for original and enterprising journalism, is seeking an ambitious and enterprising reporter to build a beat around schools and education.

This full-time position in our digital-first newsroom will provide opportunities to write daily news, dig deep on policy decisions that impact families and children, and explore issues and trends around literacy and learning. We also want to tell engaging stories about teachers and students.

The Star-Tribune is a regular winner of the Deming Cup, the Wyoming Press Association’s award for general excellence, as well as other regional journalism awards. Our tradition is built upon unmatched reporting in a state that feels more like one big community with really long roads.

Casper is the middle of it all, centrally located with a population of nearly 60,000 and big-city amenities, a friendly cost of living and a rejuvenated downtown that features multiple breweries and restaurants. Outdoors enthusiasts will find a new adventure in any direction for hiking, biking, skiing, snowboarding and more. Retail shopping includes Sam’s Club, Walmart, Target, Best Buy and Kohl’s, plus many others. Olive Garden, Texas Roadhouse, Red Lobster and Chili’s are among the chain restaurants.
