Giving students a chance to thrive beyond high school in Goldsboro

For as long as anyone can remember, Goldsboro High School has struggled to have students achieve at their grade level or above. Currently, the high school is part of the state’s Restart program which gives low-performing schools more flexibility and resources to help struggling students. The alumni of GHS are taking this fight to help students thrive one step further by giving them incentives in the form of scholarships to continue their education past high school. They believe it’s their duty and their legacy to support the next generation. In this episode, we speak with Gary Packer, the national president of the Dillard/Goldsboro Alumni and Friends.
