Diplomas Count 2013:
Second Chances: Turning Dropouts Into Graduates
The good news is that the U.S. graduation rate is nearing historic highs; the bad news is too many are left behind.
Roughly 1 million students a year leave high school without a diploma. While much attention has gone to identifying teenagers who are at risk of dropping out and finding ways to keep them in school, comparatively fewer efforts have been expended on bringing back the students who have already left.
