This poster reflects research conducted as part of a course project designed to give students experience in the research process.

Description

The challenges that face Dayton’s public schools are the product of a number of historical events, including segregation, block busting, and white flight. Drawing on the Facing Project Narratives, news articles from the city of Dayton, and social science literature, I describe these challenges. This poster presentation raises awareness on the issues students face. In addition, programs that have attempted to improve educational outcomes in Dayton (such as Dayton Early College Academy) will be discussed.
