Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It’s the goal of all high schools, including those in local school districts: boosting graduation rates. But here in our region, how far will a high school diploma actually get you? Kojo explores the value of a high school diploma and growing efforts to train students for careers before they graduate.
