Since i will be doing my research paper on the schooling system in South Africa, I decided to look at the drop out rate in depth. The rate is crazy!!!

We think about drop out rates in our country and some would say that is astonishing. I cannot imagine the difficulty of trying to stay in school within a country that has success but still has lingering problems of struggles and diversity.
ReplyDeleteIts quite clear to me that many of the kids who are dropping out see no possibility at all of going to college because of costs, family obligations, or low grades. And, even those who do go to college see a dim economic future as their degrees cannot even guarantee an entry level job in a field in which they are interested. In all I hope that this trend be stop in its tracks soon, because the longer this is kept on its just going to get worser in the future.
