(voicer) - The problem isn't the program - it works like gang-busters - the problem is money. Lots of money. The school board needs $1.2 million dollars from the city of Lynchburg for it's in-school suspension program called "Restore."But the city budget isn't set. "Restore works by modifying behavior. Dr. Derrick Brown with the school district says before "Restore" 60% of suspended students would get suspended again. The "Restore" program cut that almost in half. Dr. Brown says the program needs sustained funding from the city to continue. I'm Charley O'Brian.
