Factory Failure

Chris has demonstrated exceptional reporting skills and journalistic integrity. Recently, he presented the findings of an extensive eight-year research project conducted for Fox Local in Baltimore, in collaboration with a dedicated team focused exclusively on the school system. Their mission has been clear: to uncover the reasons behind the alarming failure rates within local schools, where approximately 70% of students are not completing their education or graduating.

According to Chris, despite the influx of millions of dollars into these schools, the success rate has remained stagnant. He highlights a concerning trend—school boards are allocating resources to hire administrative and non-teaching positions rather than investing in qualified educators. Chris asserts that this issue is not isolated to Baltimore; rather, it reflects a nationwide crisis that demands immediate attention and action.
