The
Silent Epidemic
Report from Civic Enterprises
A primary purpose of this report is to approach the
dropout problem from a
perspective that has not been much considered in past
studies - that of the students
themselves. These efforts were designed to paint a more
in-depth picture of
who these young people are, why they dropped out of
high school, and what might
have helped them complete their high school education.
We wanted to give their
stories and insights a voice, and to offer our own views
on next steps, in the hope
that this report could be a further wake-up call to
educators, policymakers, other
leaders, and the public to summon the national will
to address the high school
dropout epidemic. National
Service Learning Center
