Closing the Achievement Gap
In the United States, public education is expected to offer equal opportunity to all children, but our nation is struggling to fulfill this promise. ETS is deeply committed to closing this achievement gap and to preparing our children to succeed academically, in the workforce and ultimately in their contributions to society.
