As the University System raises its admissions standards, a sizeable group of students in middle and high school will be unable to compete if they continue on their present course. The program will begin in Fall 1996 for 7th graders with the addition of one successive grade per year through the year 2002. Our society needs the contributions of all its members. In a democracy, all children have a right to a high-quality education. Faculty and support staff in our educational systems have a responsibility to see that all children and youths learn at high levels.
Education is a continual process of personal development.
We need to educate young people and adults to be productive workers, responsible citizens and life-long learners. We cannot afford to fail. If you believe that meeting the educational needs of our youth is essential to Georgia's future, then we need your support. Whether on the State or local level, you can work with others from all sectors of your community to build paths for student success. Call or write for information.
