Dropout Factory
UTAH THE ONLY STATE IN U.S. WITHOUT A 'DROPOUT FACTORY'
A new analysis indicates Utah is the only state in the country that does not have a `dropout factory` - a high school where no more than 60 percent of the students who start as freshmen make it to their senior year.

Factory Dropout
This is sad, and the US can't figure out why immigrants are so successful when compared to natural born citizens. One word: MOTIVATION!
That reminds me of a story I read a few weeks ago. Apparently there's a school trying out a new program where they pay money to children who are doing well... at least they're trying something I suppose.

I was curious to see where Alaska stood with these ratings--one of the high schools is only about 15 miles away. I didn't realize it was that high, nationwide.

| JUNEAU -- Seven of Alaska's 40 high schools -- or more than 17 percent -- have the dubious distinction of being "dropout factories," according to an analysis of U.S. Department of Education data published Monday. |
