In April, NBCU Academy and Adobe launched The Edit, a free digital storytelling challenge for middle and high school students across the country. In its first year in the U.S., the program has built on the multiyear success of Sky Up’s The Edit, which has reached over 150,000 students in the U.K., Ireland and Italy.

The three winning high schools and three winning middle schools will receive prizes from NBCU Academy and Adobe, including GoPros, Fandango gift cards and Peacock Premium vouchers for their outstanding video news reports on physical, mental or financial wellbeing. Watch the winning reports below!
