Hi, I’m Lori Higgins for Chalkbeat Detroit, here with your morning roundup of education news.
We don’t write much about school athletics at Chalkbeat, but we do write about equity. So today’s top story, from BridgeDetroit’s Micah Walker, is an interesting one. During a discussion about how much the district spends on athletics last week, the president of the board raised questions about gaps in spending between K-8 athletic teams and high school teams. You can read more about the discussion here.
A new school year needs strong local reporting. Help Chalkbeat’s reporters keep asking the questions that matter.
