After eight years of relentlessly following the money, the paper trails, and the data, Chris Papst- the lead investigative reporter behind the Emmy Award-winning "Project Baltimore"- is pulling back the curtain on Baltimore's failing public school system. Frighteningly, the systemic failures in Baltimore are not an anomaly, but a preview of what’s happening in school districts across America. Chris has made it his mission to spread the news far and wide so that parents everywhere can be equipped with the warning signs of what it looks like when a school shifts its priority from educating students, to pursuing personal gain and political power. If you’ve ever wondered why your tax dollars aren't moving the needle on student performance, this is the episode that explains why.
