Title:The dropout/graduation crisis among American Indian and Alaska Native students: Failure to respond places the future of native peoples at risk
Source:http://www.civilrightsproject.ucla.edu/research...
Date:2010
Organization:UCLA Civil Rights Project
Short Description:This paper examines the graduation/dropout crisis among American Indian and Alaska Native students using data from the National Center for Education Statistics.
Annotation:This paper examines the graduation/dropout crisis among American Indian and Alaska Native students using data from the National Center for Education Statistics. Data from 2005 is drawn from the seven states with the highest percentage of American Indian and Alaska Native students as well as five states in the Pacific and Northwestern regions of the United States. Findings indicate that the number of American Indians and Alaska Natives who graduate continues to be a matter of urgent concern. On average, less than 50% of Native students in these twelve states graduate each year.
