| Abstract | This sourcebook describes methods of dealing with dropouts in Oregon school districts. "At-risk youth" and "dropout" are defined and survey results of 98 percent of superintendents concerning program offerings are summarized. Data suggest that medium-size districts require greatest assistance. Despite increases in single-parent households and drug and alcohol abuse, results reveal that at-risk programs are only emerging. Types of systems, programs, and projects are detailed. Information sources for these approaches are provided. Systems are based on effective schools research, data-based monitoring, or screening and follow-up. A program is an integrated, long-term series of projects. Examples from large, medium, and small districts are presented. Projects, classified and exemplified by schools, include: (1) educational--Forest Grove High School's individualized project; (2) alcohol and drug awareness/treatment--Eugene's IMPACT program; (3) health and mental health--North Eugene High School's health center; (4) teen pregnancy--Eugene's Opportunity Center; (5) family services--Portland's Project RETURN; (6) vocational--Salem's Construction Cluster; (7) counseling/guidance--Santa Clara Elementary School's Mentor/Advocate project; (8) staff development--Springfield's multifaceted project; and (9) community action--Portland's Leaders Roundtable Planning project. Recommendations include personalization in planning, increasing elementary prevention programs, and reviewing "excellence" reforms to ensure access for at-risk youth. (CJH) |
