Drop Out Prevention: Helping All Students
Under No Child Left Behind there has been an unprecedented investment in the improvement and strengthening of public schools serving low-income students, and a focus on strategies to help K-12 students stay in school and on track for success. Along the way, NCLB recognizes that remediation strategies, such as those targeting adolescent readers, must be integrated so that students can get on track wherever they are in the K-12 continuum. When high school students canâ??t learn and fall behind, they drop out of school, and no reform can help them if theyâ??re outside the classroom doors. This program focuses on dropout prevention strategies that work, including adolescent reading interventions, intensive tutoring and remediation techniques, alternative high school programs such career academies, middle colleges, and community college dual-enrollment programs that provide support, encouragement and direction for at-risk youth and struggling students.
