There is a banner at Ford school, hanging on the fence along Hollingsworth Avenue proclaiming their pride in being a progressive agent for change in a less than affluent neighborhood. It reads " Title I School In Action".
That helps to explain the constant hubbub of activity occurring there. I said it helps explain, not fully explains. Sure being designated a Title I school does allow for more monies to be secured but like the song says, "Money Can't Buy You Love".
Don't underestimate the power of commitment, commitment to a cause. That cause is education of our youth.You know, Socrates was put to death for "corrupting the young". I am sure a lesser fate awaits guilty members of the LSC like "failing to win re-election".
