EDUCATION RESOURCES

The nation’s educators, business leaders, community leaders and the U.S. Army have a shared responsibility and mutual interest in working together to ensure the success of today’s students – realizing positive benefits when achievement gaps are bridged. 

Well-prepared students who move forward to achieve post-secondary success are integral to the future of our communities, the prosperity of our economy, the readiness of our workforce and the strength of our national security. The U.S. Army’s underlying mission, and the mission of this section is to motivate, educate, train and develop America’s youth to become the leaders, decision makers and civic contributors of tomorrow. Working together, we can build stronger futures and improve outcomes for all youth across the country.
