NV sure better do something...... we are ranked next to the bottom on education.
Nevada 49th out of 50
Overall grade: D
State score: 65.0
Per-pupil spending: $8,141 (5th lowest)
High school graduation rate: 60.0% (the lowest)
Eighth-graders proficient in math or reading: 28.3% (10th lowest)
Less than 34% of children in
Nevada had at least one parent with a post-secondary degree, the lowest
rate nationwide. Since parents play perhaps the most important role in a
child’s chance for success, poor educational attainment rates among
adults in Nevada were likely a factor in children’s relatively poor
achievements in school. Similarly, early education can set the stage for
a child’s entire academic career. Young children in Nevada were among
the least likely nationwide to attend preschool or kindergarten. With
the lowest high school graduation rate in the country, at 60% in 2012,
young adults in Nevada were also far less likely to pursue further
education than their peers in most states. While 55.1% of American young
adults were enrolled in or had completed a post-secondary degree
program, just 40.5% in Nevada were — nearly the lowest rate.
And giving the students job skills, instead of "book learning" would go a LONG way to solving this problem
