Income Comparisons
In the not so distant past, parents and teachers encouraged their students that the key to having a successful life started with them obtaining a high school diploma.  In 2003 the U.S. Census Bureau conducted a survey of 18-65 year olds to analyze the impact of income based on education levels.  The average income for those who attended high school but did not graduate was $18,740. The income for those who graduated high school but did not continue their education made almost $10k more per year in income. In today’s competitive and technology-driven workplace, the focus for parents and teachers have been for the student to graduate college. Students who went on to obtain their Bachelor’s degrees generally earned about $51k per year which is almost 3 times what high school graduates made.
