NEW YORK, NY April 24, 2008 —New York City recently began using cash to try to motivate kids to get better test scores. So far, more than $800,000 has been distributed to about 5,300 4th and 7th graders. The city sees this as a bold experiment. Others question whether it will only drive kids for the short term. WNYC’s Cindy Rodriguez talked to students about how things are going so far.
