Radio is now the fourth R in Cleveland schools

Since 1925 stations donated time, with funding later coming from Rockefeller grants and the Cleveland Board of Education. Radio classrooms aid both emotion and intellect, offering two hours daily of lessons, with senior highs broadcasting on WBOE and workshops in most schools.
