Strategies Related to Graduation and Dropout

The strategy briefs listed below can be used to reduce the risk of students dropping out and to recover students who may have already made a decision to dropout of school. Many of these strategies overlap with those for behavior and discipline. They can be used for individual student planning or school improvement planning. Each brief identifies the tier of intervention for that strategy.

A pdf of a complete list of all Student Engagement Project documents showing data completed, tiers of intervention, and page length is here.
