College/career readiness (2011-2012)

Kentucky Department of Education website.

Graduating from college is an increasingly important milestone that benefits both the graduate and the greater public. College graduates enjoy a higher likelihood of employment, higher personal income, better health, and improved quality of life. While going to college after high school is likely to provide more well-paying job opportunities, there are other available paths to becoming a productive adult, such as employment in a skilled trade or joining the military.
