American Graduate Day is a public media broadcast event on Saturday, September 22, 2012 dedicated to engaging communities across the country in understanding and action around the high school dropout crisis. It will air, locally, on Nine PBS from 12PM to 7PM.

While the American Graduate Day broadcast is national, fourteen minutes of every hour on Nine Network will focus on the work in the St. Louis region. See what public media and community partners, like Wyman, are doing in St. Louis and across the country to keep young people on track for graduation and future success.

Our work together on American Graduate will produce young people who are engaged, contributing citizens that are economically self sufficient and employed.
