Graduation Rates in Cleveland


WVIZ-PBS and WCPN ideastream is teaming up with the Plain Dealer to present a new project called Tomorrow’s Promise – Helping Children Left Behind. It was organized this past summer after the Plain Dealer published a series of articles on major challenges facing our youth. Tomorrow’s Promise begins with a focus on graduation rates: Why is it a bigger problem here than in some other areas, and what’s being done to keep kids from dropping out? ideastream’s Bill Rice reports.

Tim Roberts, Founder and Director of the program notes here why he and his organization want to do this work. .
