Dropouts (Lesly)

Why do you think a lot of students are dropping out? What happens to them? What are some of the effects of dropping out? What do we have to do to keep the students in school?

There is a lot of students dropping out and we cant do anything that can make them stay in school.  In fact dropping out can have horrible consequences. For example,  author Leonor Crossley said that,  “high school dropouts make up a higher proportion of convicts and inmates awaiting death row in America” (Crossley). According to the national dropout prevention center/network, “we have to do a lot of thing to prevent those dropout to stay out of trouble but they are in so much trouble right now that they are dropouts but they don’t understand that an education is the only thing that can help them with there live in the future . one of the examples that Leonor Crossley said that “the national prevention center/network warns student that graduating high school affects their financial stability all the way to retirement age . Statics provided by the canter state that people who graduated high school earn an average $143 more per week then those who choose not to graduate”(Crossley). That why it not good to get out of high school before you graduate because many people don’t see that they are not going to earn that much money as they thought the would because they don’t have the graduation certificate in their hand to prove that they worked really hard to be thee with their certificates that many people wont even care that you have a criminal record they want prove that you graduated from high school that that meant that you have the knowledge to get a better job than a dropout
