| description | This article focuses on the coordinated effort of governors, business leaders and education leaders to prepare students for college. Governors from 45 states, corporate executives, policy experts, leaders from both secondary and higher education, and representatives from a wide range of philanthropic and other nonprofit organizations have all agreed upon a common policy goal: making the high-school diploma a true indicator of readiness for success in both college and work. Yet such effort requires statewide buy-in and cooperation between secondary and higher education, with colleges playing a major role. Here, the authors offer some suggestions on what should be done to reach the goal. They suggest that college and high-school leaders must work together to align standards and states must raise high-school graduation standards. |
