HTN: Longer Buffalo School Days for Some?

The school day at 34 schools in Buffalo could be extended by one hour. That's just one measure school officials are debating. The district is looking for ways to best spend 24-million dollars in federal stimulus money. The longer school day is already in place at 17 learning facilities in the city. Other possibilities include making half-day summer classes full day, providing extra instruction to 13-hundred high school kids at risk of dropping out and helping parents get more involved with their children's education.
