Improve The City: Send Your Kids To Its Schools, Jane C. Murphy

Urban inner-city schools with high percentages of minority students are among those with the highest risk factors and they experience the greatest problems with attendance and, eventually, truancy. The Richmond Public Schools (RPS) has worked diligently for …
