[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably a lot of dropouts who decided to work available jobs and make money rather than go to school, especially high school age. [/quote] Likely a large percentage. I actually had someone in a facebook mom group tell me wanting high schools to open in Spring 2021 was racist and classist because then the underprivileged teens would have to quit their day jobs and attend school or drop out and their families would lose the kid's income. Crazy world we live in.[/quote] +1 Economics are likely a big part of this, as is inertia. Like anything, it's easier to stay on track than it is to get back on track once you have been away for a while. Those who weren't doing well or connecting at school and don't have the family support to nudge or force them to go back may never get degrees. It sounds like many of you don't care, but I find it heartbreaking.[/quote]
