What to do What to do!

At first I really had no idea of what to do for my research, I thought about doing more interviews, but I had a feeling that that was not going to get me anywhere. I needed to find a more reliable source of information. So i decided to go back to the web and really spend some time looking for reliable source of information. So that's exactly what I did.

I came upon web site that really help me with my questions, it really was great help for me. The title of this web site is call "The Silent Epidemic." This web site is really interesting because it shows you all the different perspectives of why do students drop out school. Some of he information that that I look up was:

-Consequences of our Nation's Low Graduation Rates.
-Who is Dropping Out?
-Why do Student Drop Out of High School.
-Their Regrets
-What Might Help Students Stay in School.

I found out that some of the consequences of dropping out of, is that if you drop out of school you may tend to do crime in your live, and have a better chance of landing in jail than a person that got their High School degree, Also that a person that drop out of high school make about 9,500 dollars less than a person that has there high school degree and about a 1 million less that a person that has there college degree.

Must of the students that are dropping out are between the ages of 16 and 26, all of have there own story of why they are dropping out, but all of them have similar reason. I found out that there are 5 top reason why are students dropping out. The first one is that classes are not interesting, Second one that they miss to many day and could not cash up. Third one is that students where spending time with people that where not interested in school. Fourth one is that they had to much freedom and not enough rules. And the last reason was because they where felling in there classes.

So this is just a little in formation that I came upon and I hope by my next post I have more information to offer my readers . And lets see if I find an answer to my question?
