Despite economic tough times, Syracuse, New York school system is willing to invest $10 million dollars into their Say Yes Program to pay for students to attend college for free. This is great. Finally some news on how investing in education can encourage students to perform better. Many students now have a real incentive to perform at a high level. Parents should also be excited about the opportunity for their children to attend college for free. It's interesting to see if this program improves the 42 percent graduation rate in that school district. If it does then maybe other school districts will provide similar programs.
