Sounds like this question would use algebra to provide an answer.
Last years NEAP exam showed that 75% of graduating seniors are not proficient in math. On the NEAP test proficient means a C or better. Only 37% tested proficient or better in reading. For many students a High School Diploma is a joke. Many of the students graduating High School have not even mastered what used to be considered a ninth-grade level of proficiency in reading, writing, and arithmetic.
