' ' ' Urge Your Children To Complete School ly GAMY (LEVILAND MYERS, Ph.D. IN thes* day*, when not only | the completion ol high schbol but also of college 1* so necessary for living the most useful life, it Is sad to see so many youths drop out of school. This situation oc curs most often during or just! before high school and is more prevalent in rural than In urban areas. And right now, with good lobs so easy to get, the problem seems particularly acute. A recent study at Oregon State College estimates that 10,000 po tential high school graduates of' that state have left school since 1030. And how many for the whole natlop there must be I The First Sign The study, conducted by Dr. Brett Re Stuart, found that the first sign of a potential drop-out is tardiness. Other danger signs ar* increased absences, discour agement with studies, lack of in itiative and self-confidence, non participation In classes and fall i are In required courses. His suggestions foe reducing drop-outs. Ilk* those one bears in most conference discussions of the subject, sesm to place the sole hope on what the school can do in direct relation with the youth himself. Almost nothing I have heard or read emphasises efforts at Inducing parents to try to In spire more ambition in their chil dren and persuade or even re quire Unas youths to remain in Having observed a Dumber of drop-outs In several communities over a number of years, where I knew the youths and their par ents pretty well,-* discovered that In many eases parents approve the dropping out half-heartedly, , even whole-heartedly. In many other cases, the parents could have kept a promising youth la school by merely assuming he would continue and then acting accordingly. Other parents never tried to Inspire their children to want to get the best education possible. What will these youths say ten or twenty years hence about their parents? Excellent Opportunity The P.TA meetings offer an excellent opportunity to discuss the possibilities parents have for helping to keep their children In school. Moreover, educators discussing among themselves ' the problem of drop-outs should set high on their agenda possi bilities of helping parents to find better ways of keeping their youths In school. Let us remember, too, that not nearly all drop-outs are dullards but have among them very bright boys and girls.
