8 Area of Concern
9
9 Targeted Concern There were approximately 15 students out of total student population of 1,000 that were dropping out of school when they reached their 16 th birthday.
10
10 Generate Hypotheses: Answer the Why?
11
11 Hypotheses Generated Young men leave school. Low income students do not value education. Students who get discipline referrals want out. The lower the GPA, the more likely one is to walk. Parents didnt finish high school, children wont. Single parent families and similar find it difficult to shepherd students through school. These students come to us with poor test scores. These students earn too few credits. These students are frequently tardy or leave early.
