Continuation schools are often the final option for the state's at-risk youth before dropping out. But at one continuation school in Southern California, some students are thinking about college and career for the very first time. In Sacramento, students and teachers are making beautiful music together as part of The String Project. Plus, high schoolers get a civic lesson in Brawley.
