Abstract | High school students with disabilities who drop out are costly to society. Compared to those who graduate, they are more likely to be unemployed, dependent on public services, and involved in the criminal justice system. Consequently, helping students with disabilities graduate has become a prominent national concern. Students with disabilities drop out at higher rates than their nondisabled peers and experience more obstacles to reentry. Education providers throughout the country have responded to this situation by offering reentry programs to which students with disabilities can return to complete their high school education. These programs are specifically designed to address students' barriers to school completion and prepare them for college and career readiness. Hence, the National Dropout Prevention Center for Students with Disabilities has created three reports to help better understand the issue and to assist in planning new reentry programs or redesigning existing programs. This report, "Part II: Strategies for Location and Reenrolling," provides information on methods that have been used to locate and reenroll youth and is intended for use by state departments of education, school districts, and community-based organizations interested in dropout recovery. Promising practices are highlighted in shaded boxes. Three appendices are included: (1) Summary of Strategies to Reach Out-of-School Youth; (2) Implementation Guide; and (3) Barriers to Reenrolling Students. [For Part I, see ED575676. For Part III, see ED575674.] (ERIC). |
