At a Glance

Michigan emphasizes school reform through several avenues, namely charter schools, programs for incarcerated youth, career academies, and alternative high schools. The overall state goal is to raise student achievement and double the number of secondary schools offering different academic pathways to reach more underserved students. Presently, the Governor aims to double the number of students graduating from college or receiving associate degrees, certificates, apprenticeships, and pre-engineering training. Continued effort to expose students to postsecondary education is a high priority. Distance learning continues to be another high priority.
