Owen, Jenni, Ed.; Rosch, Joel, Ed.; Muschkin, Clara, Ed.; Alexander, Jana, Ed.; Wyant, Casey, Ed. – Center for Child and Family Policy, Duke University (NJ1), 2008
The reason that the school dropout crisis is now referred to as a "silent epidemic" is because, when we weren't paying attention, the graduation rate in our country slipped to a level that threatens the very health and well-being of our society. Each year, almost one-third of all public high school students--and nearly one-half of all…
