1.[] High school dropouts are four times as likely to get unemployed as of those who have completed four or more years of high school or college.

2. [] The proportion of high school dropouts among 16- to 24-year-olds has declined by more than half since 1967, from 17 to seven percent in 2012,but wide disparities by race, Hispanic origin, and foreign-born status persist. A range of factors have been shown to increase a student’s risk of dropping out, including high rates of absenteeism, low levels of school engagement, low parental education, work or family responsibilities, problematic or deviant behavior, moving to a new school in the ninth grade, and attending a school with lower achievement scores. Dropping out from high school is associated with negative employment and life outcomes. Young people who drop out of high school are unlikely to have the minimum skills and credentials necessary to function in today's increasingly complex society and technology-dependent workplace. The completion of high school is usually required for accessing post-secondary education, and is a minimum requirement for most jobs. A high school diploma is associated with higher incomes and occupational status,and young adults with low education and skill levels are more likely to live in poverty and to receive government assistance.High school dropouts are also more likely to become involved in crime.Further, dropout status has been linked with poor health, including poor mental health.Such negative outcomes, along with diminished labor force participation exact a high economic toll on society. If the dropouts from the nation's class of 2011 had graduated, the U.S. economy would benefit by about $154 billion dollars over their lifetimes. Many youth who drop out of high school do eventually earn a diploma or a GED,though the benefit of a GED without a college education, especially for minorities, is disputed.One study found that 63 percent of students who dropped out had earned a diploma or GED within eight years of the year they normally should have graduated.

3. [] • High school dropouts are 2.5 • times more likely to have to go on welfare than high school

4. [] Their ACT scores would be lower because of lack of education

5.[] This is probably the easiest reason not to earn dual credit. But it's also the worst reason. Not knowing how to do something won't work as an excuse any more. There's an abundance of mediocrity and complacency in this world, making a student who is extraordinary and "hungry" quite a valuable commodity. But as valuable as dual credit is from an academic and collegiate perspective, possessing the passion and energy to accomplish a difficult task is even more valuable. So, if making an excuse is easier than making an effort, drop the idea of earning dual credit. If accomplishing something extraordinary is more your style, make this dual credit stuff happen.

6. [] This report includes four-year on-time graduation rates and dropout rates for school years 2010-11 and 2011-12. A four-year on-time graduation rate provides measure of the percent of students that successfully complete high school in 4-years with a regular high school diploma. This report includes national and state-level Averaged Freshman Graduation Rates, which NCES has been producing for many years as an estimator for on-time graduation. New to this year’s report, NCES builds off the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education’s release of state-level Regulatory Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate data required under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. || 7. [] The Condition of Education 2012 summarizes important developments and trends in education using the latest available data. The report presents 49 indicators on the status and condition of education, in addition to a closer look at high schools in the United States over the past twenty years.. The indicators represent a consensus of professional judgment on the most significant national measures of the condition and progress of education for which accurate data are available. The 2012 print edition includes indicators in three main areas: (1) participation in education; (2) elementary and secondary education and outcomes; and (3) postsecondary education and outcomes.
