I picked a high ISO to get that grainy look you often see in local papers. These were just a couple of kid I ran into who wanted me to take their picture.

If you had left it at the first part of the headline this would have been a more convincing journalistic effort. As it is, the two boys shown here don't exactly look like they are 'up in arms'. They are cheerful and showing absolutely no signs of rebellion. Also, this looks like a private parking lot not a public street so once again, the photo doesn't support the headline. I would say this photo has a tenuous connection to the challenge, at best.
Photographically, it is okay but not great. Despite the action of the skateboarder it has a flat, static quality. Shallower depth of field seems called for to separate the main subject from the boring and distracting background. With the extremely deep depth of field you've used here there is no distance created between the visual elements.
