The Department’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), part of the Institute of Education Sciences (IES), released “The Condition of Education 2011,<\/strong>” a Congressionally mandated report to the country on education in America today.\u00a0 The report includes 50 indicators in five major areas — education participation, learner outcomes, student effort and educational progress, the contexts of elementary and secondary education, and the contexts of postsecondary education.\u00a0 The report also includes a special analysis on postsecondary education.<\/p>\n

Among the notable findings:<\/p>\n

From 1999\u20132000 to 2008\u201309, the number of students enrolled in public charter schools more than tripled from 340,000 to 1.4 million students. In 2008\u201309, some 5 percent of all public schools were charter schools<\/p>\n

Between 1989 and 2009, the percentage of public school students who were White decreased from 68 to 55 percent, and the percentage of those who were Hispanic doubled from 11 to 22 percent<\/p>\n

In 2009, some 21 percent of children ages 5\u201317 (or 11.2 million) spoke a language other than English at home, and 5 percent (or 2.7 million) spoke English with difficulty. Seventy-three percent of those who spoke English with difficulty spoke Spanish<\/p>\n

The number of children and youth ages 3\u201321 receiving special education services was 6.5 million in 2008\u201309, corresponding to about 13 percent of all public school enrollment<\/p>\n

In 2009, the average U.S. combined reading literacy score for 15-year-old students was not measurably different from the average score of the 34 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)-member countries.<\/p>\n

In 2009, the average U.S. mathematics literacy score for 15-year-old students was below the average of the 34 OECD member countries. On the science literacy scale, the average U.S. score was not measurably different from the OECD average<\/p>\n

In 2007, the United States spent $10,768 per student on elementary and secondary education, which was 45 percent higher than the OECD average of $7,401.<\/p>\n

In 2007\u201308, about three-quarters of public high school students graduated on time with a regular diploma<\/p>\n

In 2007\u201308, about 36 percent of undergraduate students considered to be in their first year reported having ever taken a remedial course, while 20 percent had actually taken one in that same year. At public 2-year institutions, about 42 percent of students had ever taken a remedial course<\/p>\n

In 2009, approximately 84% of students from high-income families (the top 20% of all family incomes) enrolled in either a two- or four-year college immediately after high school, versus 67% of students from middle-income families and 55% of students from low-income families (the bottom 20% of all family incomes).<\/p>\n

By 2009, about 57% of first-time, full-time students who began seeking a bachelor’s degree at a four-year college in 2002-03 had completed their degree at that same institution within six years.<\/p>\n
