Boston Superintendent Carol Johnson and Rep. Marty Walz (D-Boston), Co-Chair of the Legislature's Committee on Education, called for more Expanded Learning Time Schools across the state in a recent panel discussion on NECN's State of Education series. 

In particular, they highlighted the success of the Edwards Middle School in Charlestown, MA, which uses its additional time to both boost student academic achievement as well provide engaging enrichment opportunties for students.
