While many civic leaders, businesses and entrepreneurs have positioned Detroit for the comeback we are now witnessing, the next great frontier is education.
Investment of time, talent and resources will likely be required if we are going to improve graduation rates. The next generation of Detroiters will need the skills and knowledge that can only be afforded through quality education. The real measure of our success is the ability to leverage the city's tremendous opportunity for economic growth into personal growth for our residents.
