Public Schools and Economic Development: What the Research Shows

KnowledgeWorks Foundation is pleased to announce our publication, Public Schools and Economic Development: What the Research Shows. Critical to our vision as an education foundation is a belief that a highly educated and skilled populace benefits both individuals and the community as a whole. As a result, we enlisted Jonathan Weiss, a nationally recognized expert in community sustainability and economic development, to review the existing research on the relationship between schools and economic development.
