Table: LII<br />

It is observed in table LII below that boys have tended to dropout<br />

more from school in all districts except in Moshi Urban where<br />

bigger percentage of the drop-out is girls. Nonetheless, people of<br />

<strong>Kilimanjaro</strong> normally give high priorities to both education and<br />

income generating activities, it is not known if this could explain<br />

early drop-out of boys from school as having been motivated by<br />

the desire to engage in income generating activities.<br />
