JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 33 - American Students

American students are falling behind academically compared to other countries. According to huffington post, "COMPARING to South Korea and Finland, they are making gains in academic twice as much as the U.S." This shows that they are more advanced. This also shows that they make their students learn more at a young age. According to huffington post, "The DATA RANGES U.S. to the 17th for having their academic schooling in the world." This shows that, even though the U.S. is more advanced in a lot of things, they aren't as advanced in school then in other countries. This also shows that more U.S. citizens will be possibly more educated in the future. In conclusion, American students need to stop falling academically when compared to other countries.
