CONCLUSION Recall issues in introduction; draw together main points; final comment I. Read the following text Relationship between working while in high school and dropping out 2000 Students who worked moderate hours at a paid job during their last year of high school were least likely to drop out of school, according to a new report. This report used data covering youth aged 18 to 20 from the 2000 Youth in Transition Survey.
However, those who worked 30 or more hours a week during their last year of high school were the most likely to end up leaving. The report confirmed previous research showing that there is a strong relationship between the number of hours students worked and dropping out of high school. It points to the fact that working and finishing high school can mix, if working is done in moderation. Although a link clearly exists between the number of hours worked and dropping out, this study does not conclude that this is a simple causeand-effect relationship. Previous research suggests dropping out of high school is more a process based on a number of factors than a decision one makes all at once. For example, some students may have been far enough along in the dropping out process to prefer working to schooling. Or some may have needed money. In fact, 44% of students who worked 30 or more hours a week reported dropping out because of "wanting to work" or "having to work/money problems." The report also considered other factors known to be related to whether a student drops out, such as enjoyment of school, demographic profile, participation in extracurricular activities, and parents' education and occupation. However, even after taking other factors into account, students who worked 30 or more hours a week were 2.4 times more likely to drop out than students with moderate work schedules (between 1 and 20 hours). Students who did not work at all were 1.5 times more likely to drop out than moderate workers. Students who were able to maintain a balance between their studies and the workload from their part-time jobs had the lowest risk of dropping out of high school. These students had the advantages of a paying job - some money, some autonomy, and some skill development - and still obtained a high school diploma. II. Identify the organization text. 1.
