America can only fulfill the promise of making education a great equalizer if our shared destination is a future in which no variable – not race, not zip code, not socioeconomic status – limits opportunities for young people. Right now, the circumstances that a young person is born into too often predict the options they will have in their adult lives. That’s why as a nation, we must ask ourselves: ☑️ How can we better prepare young people to navigate a dynamic world and workforce? ☑️ What will it take for education to deliver on its promise of economic and social mobility for all? ☑️ What experiences and opportunities across sectors will prepare young people to thrive in life? In our latest report, we explore how high school experiences shape economic and social mobility in adulthood. Here’s what we found: https://ow.ly/P1IA50STlj0 #PathsOfOpportunity #EveryGenerationThrives

Noe Garza remembers the exact moment he got into college: He was sitting in class at Earl J. Lennard High School in Ruskin, Florida, when he got a text from his mother that an acceptance letter had arrived from the University of South Florida. “When I got that text, I was kind of shocked that I actually got in,” Noe says. Nobody in his family had gone to college. His mother, Maria Martinez (pictured below), was a straight-A student in high school, but she didn’t have the opportunity to continue her education. Both she and her son had always seen college as a path to a better life, though Noe wasn’t exactly clear how he would get there.
