(PRWEB) October 28, 2016 -- While it is encouraging to see strong education goals in our high school juniors and seniors, the numbers of students who feel they have the skills they need to be successful in college — academically, psychologically, and financially — is inexcusably low.
Education Secretary John B. King will be featured on the cover of the print campaign. King has made it his mission to ensure every student succeeds. In the modern global economy, this task is becoming more intensive. “There’s an increased emphasis on a well-rounded education,” says King, citing the need for creative, technological, and critical thinking skills, “The fastest growing jobs require higher education.”
The print component of “College Preparedness” is distributed within the Oct. 28 regional circulation of USA Today, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000 within the New York, Boston, D.C., Cincinnati, and Philadelphia areas. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets.
