Drop out prevention must be a vital part of the total school program. If we don't address this problem in our schools, all of us pay as a society. This societal impact of at-risk kids dropping out is:

75% of state prisons and 59% of federal prison inmates are dropouts

Drop-outs are substantially more likely to rely on public assistance

In Texas public schools ONE student droups out every FOUR minutes

Texas ranks the 15 worst state in the country for kids leaving school without a diploma
