According to a recent report by the Alliance for Excellent Education, if Pennsylvania had graduated all its students who dropped out last year, those individuals would earn an additional $8,339,233,760 over their lifetime. The cost of mis-education goes beyond the cost to an individual but includes the high cost to society in terms of reduced wages, lower tax revenues, difficulty attracting business to local economies, and increased spending on social programs.
