High school students today face the prospect of graduating into a world that immediately weighs them down with student debt and out-of-control product prices.

Even more exciting is that the White House is getting behind this: The recent budget put forward calls for a $200 million investment in these schools. If we get it right, this investment could provide generational transformation for the U.S. education system and the American economy — as well as companies looking for untapped talent.
