Today we present episode 8 of our 9-part special video series presentation of the documentary film “Kids Aren’t Cars,” produced by Education Action Group (EAG) Foundation.

Charter schools - typically publicly-funded institutions - often deliver a better education to children and those students outperform their peers in the same neighborhood. While charter schools are no silver bullet to fix the education system, this is the story of one school in Indianapolis that took up residence in a former grocery store and because of quality instruction, flexible work rules and parental involvement, those students are excelling.

 If you would like to discuss education issues regarding the Franklin School District please contact a member of the Franklin School Board or Franklin Schools Superintendent Steve Patz at 414-525-7603.
