Conversations are taking place in Rochester that focus on increasing the graduation rate to 90% by 2020. Some of the leaders in this effort say it may be a lofty goal, but that it's about raising expectations and changing mind-sets in the community. It's called the Grad Nation movement and it's happening in 100 cities across the country including Rochester.
