Do you know ......
The current state of our economy has had a devestating affect on many americans. Education has been hit hard by this recession. An area of real concern surrounds the ability of parents and student to pay college tuition and fees. Next Step Magazine, a publication for high school students and their parents, reports 'that 50% of families polled are now limiting their child's college choices to less expensive options and 54% of families are considering in-state public college in response to the economic downturn." The overiding issue is staying in college until the end. Next Step Magazine further reports, "Students are not returning to school at alarming rates!"
