Ohio taxpayers contribute millions of dollars to a Dayton-based charter school system known for the type of strong academic performance that would make any urban educator envious.

WASHINGTON, April 14 /U.S. Newswire/ -b As adults pay their taxes on Friday, millions of younger Americans are making their own weekend contributions to the nation's health, education, human service, and environmental needs for the 17th annual National Youth Service Day.
