Providing wider educational opportunities in a community can lead to lower unemployment, less reliance on public assistance, and higher tax revenue. It can also help reduce crime, improve public health, and increase political and civic engagement.
Research also shows a strong connection between increased school spending and higher graduation rates. One study found that when per-pupil spending increased by 10% across all 12 school-age years, students were more likely to complete more years of school and earn more as adults.
Life School currently holds a 100% graduation rate.
