“Nearly 49.4 million students will attend public elementary and secondary schools. Of these, 34.7 million will be in prekindergarten through 8th grade and 14.7 million will be in grades 9 through 12.” – National Center for Education Statistics
Harvard Graduate School of Education
The Harvard Graduate School of Education’s Pathways to Prosperity Project is a landmark effort aimed at opening multiple pathways for young people to successfully navigate the journey from adolescence to adulthood.

CommunicationWorks helped shape the report’s content, set up an accompanying event with U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan as a speaker, attracted wide policymaker interest, and garnered coverage by The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, Bloomberg News, The Associated Press, and on NBC’s Today show, CNN, and many radio and broadcast affiliates.
