Abstract | The Montana School Accreditation Standards (10.55.603, ARM) require schools to do follow-up studies of graduates and students no longer in attendance. This report provides information on students who graduated or dropped out of Montana public, state-funded and nonpublic, accredited schools during the 2004-05 school year. Students who drop out of school face a bleak economic world to a much greater degree than youths in general. According to the Digest of Education Statistics, as of October 2000, 28 percent of the 1999-00 dropouts were unemployed. By way of comparison, only 13 percent of 1999-00 recent graduates not enrolled in college were unemployed. (NCES, 2001) Employment opportunities for high school dropouts continue to lag far behind their counterparts who attain a high school diploma or a college degree. The goal of gathering dropout information is to identify where and when students drop out of school and to use this knowledge to help keep students in school. Each community needs to learn the unique reasons why students drop out of their schools and, as a community, participate in supporting interventions to keep them in school and perhaps break the cycle of at-risk factors.
