This month marks another milestone for InvestigateWest: national radio airplay for one of our projects. Our series on portable classrooms called Inside the Box and produced in partnership with EarthFix was featured on Here and Now, a national program from NPR and WBUR Boston that reaches 3.1 million listeners each week.
Take a listen below to Ashley Ahearn’s reporting as she first tells about the problems associated with aging portables and then how some schools in the Pacific Northwest are turning to new and better models.
Could we also talk about rat infestations in or around these portables?
