The Rochester City School District had a turbulent 2019. Early in the year, it attempted to respond to a state-mandated report that deemed it in dire need of improvement.

James Brown covered these stories throughout the year. He and Connections producer Megan Mack discuss those developments, and what we could see in 2020.
