TEN SLEEP—It’s the Fourth of July, and thousands of people dressed in red, white and blue wait along the road in the late morning light for the parade to begin. Locals and visitors have staked out curbside spots using blankets and lawn chairs. Volunteers hand out star-spangled balloons to kiddos eager for candy and firetrucks, while the smell of food trucks parked down the street wafts through the air. A bulldog in a cowboy hat and handkerchief slurps water from a silver bowl outside the town’s saloon. The bartender, stepping outside to get a peek at the crowd, says she’s never seen such a great parade-day turnout.

The educational landscape of the United States has undergone significant transformation over the past three decades, with the percentage of individuals 25 and older having earned a bachelor's degree steadily increasing since the 1990s.
