What will be the impact of the achievement gap on our nation’s future workforce?

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: Varies. For example, the achievement gap will impact future salaries/wages, and the increased number of students dropping out of school and/or entering vocational or technical programs instead of colleges/universities will impact the quality and level of education of our workforce. These workers will have limited/minimal skills. Disparities in SES will increase, along with limited opportunities for advancement in companies and businesses.
