Pittsburgh Public Schools approves allowing more time to reduce racial inequality

The board of Pittsburgh Public Schools Wednesday night approved accept a memo of understanding with the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission that gives the district two more years to reduce racial inequality for students, including academic achievement, discipline and resources.
