Fox News
Detroit Public Schools have begun installing laundry machines to incentivize students, particularly those from low-income households, to come to school.
Taylor Penley is an associate editor with Fox News.
"I have the opportunity to come to the school and wash my son’s clothes," parent Melania Willis, whose son is a senior at a local high school where she works as a security guard, told WXYZ-TV in The Motor City.
"I do stay in an apartment and it’s hard for me sometimes to put money on the card because they close at a certain time," she added.
