Show Notes

METCO, a sixty-year-old program busing Boston students to top suburban schools, celebrates its impact on desegregation and opportunity. Despite Massachusetts top-ranked public schools, achievement gaps persist. METCOs CEO addressed families, highlighting the programs success in changing lives and integrating communities. However, former Education Secretary Paul Reville emphasizes the need for cradle-to-career support to truly close gaps, as schools alone cannot level the playing field. METCOs leaders are committed to expansion, continuing the fight for equal educational opportunities.
