Education: The State We’re In
Education: The State We’re In provides a comprehensive, state-by-state snapshot of education today in America. It brings together publicly available data, slicing the numbers in two ways. First, seven of the most pressing issue areas in education are explored in reports encompassing all 50 states. Second, individual state report cards provide a comprehensive look at education in each of the 50 states. In both instances, Education: The State We’re In offers some indication of comparative performance by ranking states from first to worst.
