Students Rely On City Transit - Does It Work?

from On The Record · host WYPR 88.1 FM Baltimore

Riding the school bus should be the social, relatively mindless part of a pupil’s day. But a recent study finds that’s not the case for Baltimore City middle- and high-school students, who rely on public transit--not yellow buses--to get safely to and from school. We hear from the report’s co-author Kwane Wyatt, Program Director of Analysis & Engagement at the Fund for Educational Excellence. Then students Imani Humphries-Torres and Kamri Moses describe some of their personal experiences.
