President Obama pledged $900 million to stem 'dropout crisis'
“In this kind of knowledge economy, giving up on your education and dropping out of school means not only giving up on your future, but it's also giving up on your family's future and giving up on your country's future. And yet, that's what too many of America's children are doing today,”
President Obama said at an event organized by the America’s Promise Alliance (March 1, 2010)

“STEM education in the United States is woefully inadequate for the future of our nation. It is insufficient to produce a robust field of opportunity for our children."
Chuck Vest - President of National Academy of Engineering
