The School Around The Corner

Last summer, Pamela Grundy and Peter Wong made a choice to send their son Parker to the local elementary school. It may sound like a simple choice, but in Charlotte, where schools have become increasingly segregated, living in the downtown neighborhood of Plaza-Midwood and sending a child to Shamrock Elementary was unheard of. Grundy and Wong join host Frank Stasio to explain their choice and give their thoughts on how it's going.
