HOW WELL IS OHIOPREPARING ALL

STUDENTS FOR COLLEGE,CAREERS AND LIFE

May 2011


2/36

A high school diploma is no longer enough; now, nearly every good job requires some education beyond high school such as anassociates or bachelors degree, certificate, license, or completionof an apprenticeship or significant on-the-job training.

Far too many students drop out or graduate from high schoolwithout the knowledge and skills required for success, closing doorsand limiting their post-high school options and opportunities.

The best way to prepare students for life after high school is to alignK-12 and postsecondary expectations. All students deserve a world-class education that prepares them for college, careers and life.

Why College- and Career-ReadyExpectations for All?

Ohio should be preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow, notthe jobs of yesterday or even today.

A quarter of American workers are now in jobs not even listed in theCensus B ureaus occupation codes in 1967.

Given the growth of new job sectors most notably green jobs it iscommon sense to provide all students with a strong foundation thatkeeps all doors open and all opportunities available in the future.
