Dayton Youth Radio

by

In 2014, WYSO launched Youth Radio to give high school students the opportunity to speak for themselves. Each year, teens collaborate with the Eichelberger Center for Community Voices to write, produce, and air their own stories on WYSO. These young creators bring fresh energy, new perspectives, and powerful storytelling to the airwaves—and their voices are helping shape the future of our region.We’ve proudly worked with students from schools including David H. Ponitz Career Technology Center, Dayton Early College Academy (DECA), Dayton STEM Academy, The Miami Valley School, Tecumseh High School, Yellow Springs High School, Centerville High School, Stivers School of the Arts, Springfield STEM Academy, Springfield High School, Springfield School of Innovation, and Thurgood Marshall Career Academy.
