Compulsory Education Debate Across Georgia and Alabama
The Georgia legislature faces a compulsory education push supported by citizens from coast to mountains. The issue hinges on literacy and school attendance, with Superintendent Gapnell’s Alabama speech cited. About one third of Alabama children of school age attend school, leaving two thirds out.
