THE  NATIONAL  EDUCATION  GOALS
In stressing quality education from early childhood through lifelong learning, the President and the Governors adopted the National Education Goals, which were put into law by the Congress in the "Goals 2000: Educate America Act." The voluntary national standards will help define what is means to reach the third and fourth of the goals below.
The Goals state that by the year 2000:
* All children in America will start school ready to learn.

* The High School graduation rate will increase to at least 90 percent.

* All students will leave grades 4, 8, and 12 having demonstrated competency over challenging subject matter including English, Mathematics, Science, Foreign Languages, Civics and Government, Economics, Arts, History, and Geography; and every school in America will ensure that all students learn to use their minds well, so they may be prepared for responsible citizenship, further learning, and productive employment in our nation's modern economy.
