Detroit Schools Still Struggling as Bobb Leaves

Detroit public schools emergency financial manager Robert Bobb walked Messiah-like through the city's neighborhoods, knocking on doors and preaching the good news about changes coming to the poor-performing district.

That was about two years ago. Today, the district continues to lose students and money.

"Detroit has been a very heavy lift," said Bobb, who told The Associated Press he would give himself a "B" or "B-plus" for his work in Detroit. "The toughest part was getting my mind fully around all the issues as quickly as possible, not just financial, but operational.

"We still have significant issues ... that have to be addressed—the total restructuring of the school district and elimination, over a period of time, of its legacy deficit without crippling how we educate children."
