Education is key to everything and can solve a<br />
lot of our problems. Although dropping out of<br />
high <strong>school</strong> works out for some people its<br />
still a big <strong>issue</strong> world wide and there is<br />

follows the next generation.

Income :Perhaps the most widely discussed consequence of not finishing high <strong>school</strong><br />
is its impact on income potential. Students who drop out of high <strong>school</strong> earn<br />
significantly less than their peers who graduated from high <strong>school</strong>.<br />
Incarceration:<br />
Not finishing high <strong>school</strong> doesn't only impact a student's future income. Dropouts are<br />
also more likely to be incarcerated in prison. According to a study by the Center for<br />
Labor Market Studies, high <strong>school</strong> <strong>dropouts</strong> are more than 63 times more likely to be<br />
incarcerated than four-year college graduates and more<br />
<br />
<br />
Only 2.6 percent of women in this age group with a bachelor's degree were also<br />
single mothers. Additionally, most of the single mothers who did not finish high<br />
<strong>school</strong> were poor and reliant on government assistance to raise their children . they<br />
depend on saasa<br />
Public Resources<br />
Because high <strong>school</strong> <strong>dropouts</strong> earn less income, are more likely to be incarcerated<br />
and become single mothers at disproportionate rates, they use more<br />
public resources. Not finishing high <strong>school</strong> doesn't just impact the student<br />
who dropped out, it impacts public financial resources, too.<br />

techniques of teaching. To prevent future <strong>dropouts</strong>.<br />

giving employment to these prospective drop outs might save the<br />
situation.<br />
