According to the Kentucky Department of Education, the program will allow 13 districts of public schools to receive postsecondary coaching in order to ensure equity and equal access to postsecondary education. The announcement was made Tuesday by the agency in collaboration with OneGoal, a postsecondary success organisation, and the Kentucky Council for Postsecondary Education.
