Why do you think so
many students dropout? What do you think
happens to them- what are some of the effects of dropping out? What can be done to keep kids in school?
Describe the problem and effects of students dropping out,
and what can happen to keep kids in school.
I think the problem with kids dropping out is
that they don’t find school useful for them, so they drop out. Another reason
why I think is the problem with kids dropping out is they probably failed the
same grade too many times so they just gave up. “According to the U.S. Department
of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, reports from October 1988 show that 28.2
percent of employed youth found themselves to be unemployed within a year after
they had dropped out of high school.” (Crossley) Some effects of students dropping out are
that they will have low income because they don’t have a career. “According to
the National Dropout Prevention Center/Network, since high school dropouts have
a greater chance of living in poverty or with considerably low income”.
(Crossley) Another effect of students dropping out of school is they will have
a hard time finding a well paying job because they don’t have a diploma. If
they don’t have any money to buy food, clothes, shoes, and etc. they will start
doing illegal things, which includes getting involved with drugs and robbing
people for their money. The last effect of students dropping out is they will
not have the things that they want because they didn’t complete school. If you
don’t complete high school, then some jobs will not hire you
