Detroit Store Tries To Draw Kids To School With New Shoes

DETROIT (CBS Detroit)  Got kicks? Every Detroit student who shows up on the cash-crucial Student Count Day will be able to answer “yes” thanks to a donation from Bob’s Classic Kicks in midtown.
BCK, 4717 Woodward, made an arrangement with the school district to give away a free pair of black leather Nikes to every student who comes to class on Oct. 3, the day when students are counted and their numbers used as the basis for per-pupil funding from the state and federal government.
The more bodies in class, the more money schools have all year.

  1. I guess it is one way to get them to go to school for at least one day.
    What have we become. If they are not going to school the other 179 days then the school shouldn't need funding for those days. Greed is all it is.
