Strengths/Challenges for Education:

Challenges |
| North Dakota students perform well academically. North Dakota is one of three states with the lowest high school drop-out rate. | In contrast to K-12 public school enrollments, which are declining, the number of children in early childhood and special education programs is growing. Our continued support of Head Start and special education is vital for children's success. |
