EdTrust has a new report - Meandering Toward Graduation.
Nearly half of all high school graduates complete an academic program
that prepares them neither for college not career, according to a new
report from The Education Trust. In fact, only 8 percent of high school graduates completed both a full college- and career-prep curriculum. Wealthier kids are more likely to complete a college-ready curriculum than poorer ones. Meanwhile, a different report suggests that students are spending $1.5 billion on remedial classes once they get to college (Kamenetz, NPR).
