What Would You Fight For: Economics research fights to improve education policies
In Phoenix, Arizona, six high school graduates cross the stage in caps and gowns. They don’t look like high school graduates—all are well over 18 years old, and each person missed the opportunity to graduate on time for one reason or another. Just a few years ago, these six adults never would have…
In Phoenix, Arizona, six high school graduates cross the stage in caps and gowns.
