-Shows the estimated Net drop out rate-
In the High Stakes Community School I was one of the Drop out Coordinators. As a Drop out Coordinator I did not agree with the proposal. Many of the proposals account for many requirements that the students have to meet. This in turn makes kids who are less smart and capable to achieve these things to stay on task and focus on getting to the requirement level. They have to work much more harder to achieve these goals. If these students cannot stay up with the high achievers they are going to want to drop out of school because they are going to be stressed they cannot do it.
I agree that something needs to be done so that even the high achiever students are able to achieve at a higher level than they are already at. This does not mean that everyone has to raise their level of smartness. Some kids are not able to get to the level that the high achievers are at. I really think that the proposal should make the requirements a little less harsh. Students may get scared that they are going to have to be the best all the time and they won't be able to do that and end up dropping out.
The drop outs are going to be the students that are not as smart and cannot keep up with the standards and requirements. It is also going to be the high achieving students that are getting too stressed about doing homework all the time to keep up with the requirements.
This proposal overall is going to make kids very stressed. It may help them get better, but it may also hurt them. Not every student is the same. There needs to be something done that helps all types of people not just the high achievers.
