CPS: Community Partnership School in Philadelphia

NBC10 Anchor Dawn Timmeney; NBC10 Photographer Derek Finger, NBC10 Editor Gretchen Krawczyk

Many cities across the country are trying to find ways to make their communities better. Providing inner city kids with a good education is key. That is the premise behind a groundbreaking school in the Strawberry Mansion section of Philadelphia. National educators believe CPS, Community Partnership School, is the first of its kind in the country, and could serve as a model for other cities. It's a private school. Parents pay what they can and CPS relies on donations for the rest. More info: www.communitypartnershipschool.org
