In-Depth: Photos From Inside the Transfer Program

Michael Melinger

These photos are a peak in the lives of two families, Clayton families.  Young kids who want to learn and parents who want the best for their kids. 

These families are apart of the Voluntary Student Transfer program.  A program that provides city families with access to county education.  A program that may soon go away.
