YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDetroit Public Schools are in crisis. Dropout rates are twice the national average, schools are routinely failing health inspections, and the district is more than three and a half billion dollars in debt. In this short video, Atlantic associate editor Alia Wong traces the history of Detroit Public Schools—from a model for urban education at the turn of the century to a failing, debt-ridden system today. How did the school district decline so dramatically?
This video is based on the report, A School District in Crisis: Detroit's Public Schools 1842-2015.
Authors: Daniel Lombroso, Alia Wong, Michael Bloom
