Economic factors of high school dropouts?

Children drop out of high school for many reasons. I see a question. "Economic factors of high school dropouts?" It has two possible meanings. The first meaning is, "Do students drop out of high school because they or their parents can not afford to let them continue to go to school? If so, what does the future hold?" The answer is Yes. You can go to any number of migrant labor camps in the United States. You can see children running around. You will talk to people. Their parents could not afford to pay for them to go to school. You can see children pushing drugs on the street. You can ask them why they are not in school. They will tell you they need money for food. Some of them are lucky enough to get sent to jail where they will get three meals a day and go to school. Most will simply have there drugs taken away from them and get a lecture from the judge. The lecture will do no good. Many families force their children to go to work as soon as possible. The other question concerning Economic factors is a question of whether or not getting a High School diploma without college actually affects future income and if so, how? That is a far more difficult question. The boys graduating from high school are the boys who did not join gangs but were law abiding. A number did not go to college because they had connections to get a job. (If your dad is a plumber and he can get you on as a plumber's apprentice, why bother becoming a brain surgeon?) The girls who graduated were the ones who did not get pregnant and drop out. They graduated and got jobs. They learned what life was all about. So. The high school dropout situation frequently tells you more about the dropout than it does about the high school. However, it might tell you about the incompetent administration of the high school. The administration could even encourage the existence of gangs and dope dealing. When the principal is challenged for the way he runs such a school, he shrugs and says, "This is an experimental school." Only Education has experiments where the results are not measured and reported.


What does socioeconomic status mean?

By socio-economic status, most people mean a person's rank in society based upon their class. In the U.S., class is primarily defined by a person's education and employment. For the most part, people with higher incomes have higher status, but not always. Lower income people in white collar occupations are usually considered higher status than blue collar people who earn more money; i.e.. a librarian is usually perceived to have greater status than an interstate bus driver. On the other hand, a self-employed journeyman plumber will not only have greater income than an elementary school teacher, but also will have higher status. In Europe and South America, its much more common for educated people with lower incomes to have greater status in society than the uneducated well-to-do. In the U.S., that's not as frequent. A high school dropout here who earns over a $100,000 per year will usually be accorded much more respect than an MBA twenty years out earning only $50,000 per year.

What the future holds for high school students who dropout?

Without going for a GED, you'll usually (not always, but most of the time) end up with dead-end jobs with little chance to move up. Your salary will be capped at a much lower rate than those with a GED or HS diploma. According to the US Census, without a GED or HS diploma, average annual earnings are $23,000 per year. With a GED or HS diploma, it jumps up to $30,000. Over the course of a lifetime, that's about $200,000 difference (or around the cost of a house).


Can you compare income between a high school graduate and a high school drop out?
