Are you saying that the high school dropout rate is 1%? Because that's not anywhere close to being correct. It's over 25% in the United States according to this

Are you saying that the high school dropout rate is 1%? Because that's not anywhere close to being correct. It's over 25% in the United States according to this: http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2013/06/high-school-graduation-rate-hits-40-year-peak-in-the-us/276604/ http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2013/06/high-sch...
- adient 13y agoDropping out is not the opposite of not graduating; you can continue trying to graduate for several years. The actual dropout rate is 7.4%: nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=16
- BadCookie 13y agoThanks for the correction. The Atlantic article should have specified that they meant the four year graduation rate. I did think that 25% seemed too high, but I knew that 1% was much too low.
