"SCHOOL DROPOUT"

Emel Bodur

Reasons for students dropping out of school include being kicked out, family issues, financial problems, health issues, and academic difficulties. Families can support their children by having realistic expectations, considering different schools, getting involved, and staying in touch with the school. Schools can provide family support mechanisms, adopt early-intervention strategies, create out-of-school programs, be honest with students, introduce classroom coaches, be mindful about nutrition, set study goals, ask for help, help students make informed decisions, develop mentoring/tutoring programs, teach them how to study, and support their mental health.
