About 1/2 of students enrolling in community college require
remediation. A 2012 district evaluation found that 44% of [school
name] graduates were not college ready in math. For minority
students the numbers are even higher, as much as 90% in some
places. Only about 22% of students that undertake remediation
complete college and receive a degree. Its time to rethink
readiness.
