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.

Was San Gabriel a mission in New Mexico?

San Gabriel was the 2nd capitol of the area now existing as the State of New Mexico, and yes, there was a mission there.

History-

On July 11, 1598 the Spanish explorer, Juan de Onate and his privately financed expedition, (which consisted of nearly two hundred soldier-colonists, many with wives and families, nine Franciscan priests, several hundred Indian servants and allies, as well as thousands of head of livestock), made it to the native village of Ohkay Owingeh. Juan de Onate renamed it San Juan, and as with the other native cities he'd passed through while traveling North, up the Rio Grande from New Spain (Mexico), he claimed all of the land he saw for his country of Spain. It appears that the Spanish intended to stay here because they did indeed refer to San Juan Pueblo as the first capitol of this area.

This native town of San Juan must not have fit the Spanish' needs, because they soon moved across the river, and a little North, to the native city of Yungue Oweenge. The native people here relocated to Ohkay Owingeh, and moved in with their relatives. Yungue Oweenge was renamed, San Gabriel de los Españoles (sometimes referred to as San Gabriel de la Paz), and became the 2nd capitol.

Yes, there was a mission church added to the original native buildings at San Gabriel. But fifteen years later this area was fairly abandoned by the Spanish, few families left here. Many of them had abandoned New Mexico entirely and moved back to Mexico. Juan Onate was no longer in favor in New Mexico when the colonists moved on to what is now Santa Fe, the last capitol, in about 1610 - 1613.

Because this land, both San Pedro & San Gabriel, is owned by the native people, the deserted mission at San Gabriel was not fully investigated until 1965, when an invitation was extended by the Pueblo to excavate and determine the scope of the mission and the surrounding buildings. Florence Hawley Ellis, an archeologist at The University of New Mexico with students, attended the dig.

A paper was published by Ellis , but owing to a lack of funds, (according to her), no official report of her work was immediately published. In 1989, she did bring out a small narrative history of the excavations, "San Gabriel del Yungue", published by Sunstone Press.

There may be some photos or drawings available, but unfortunately for all of us, the entire site was backfilled.

What is considered physical capital in economics?

There are a couple definitions. The one I think your looking for is any asset that is used in the creation of other assets. A manufacturing company's factories would be considered capital because they are used in the production of things that the manufacture sells. For a bank, any office is considered capital. Even something as small as a van used by a small cleaning company is considered capital.

Why does black not reflect light?

Black objects do not reflect light because they absorb most of the light that strikes them, rather than reflecting it back. The absorption of light by black objects is a result of their molecular structure, which allows them to retain more light energy than they release. This lack of reflection gives black objects their characteristic dark appearance.

Day and night happen because of?

It happens because the Earth rotates. So at any time, half of the Earth is facing the Sun, so it is bright and day time there and the other half is facing away from the Sun so it is dark and night time. As the Earth continues to rotate, parts that were facing the Sun are soon facing away from it and the parts facing away from it are now facing it, so everywhere gets day and night.

What are the advantages of free market?

The Advantages of a free market system is that People can trade items at a price that is mutually acceptable to the Buyer and seller. If for instance, in Simple terms, somebody charges too much for a Apple it will make way for somebody to sell the apples cheaper so he will get the customers, in basic terms its stops somebody from cornering (controlling) the market because they are the only one able to supply a product.

It also means that a government or state will not interfere with the purchase or sales of any items in any way except to Tax or police, if items are illegal or prohibited

I am sure there are more reasons Good and Bad, but here is a start.
