In view of the belief that "education should be provided for all youth" in America the problem of why pupils leave high school before graduation is one of considerable concern. The proportions of this problem are indicated by the fact that between 25 and 30 per cent of youth of high school age are not in school, and further that of those who enroll in the fifth grade of the elementary school approximately 50 percent fail to complete high school. The purpose of this study is to investigate the literature with respect to the facts concerning the drop-out problem generally, and specifically to determine the extent of the problem, and the causes given by the pupils for dropping out before graduation in the Bainbridge High School at Bainbridge, Georgia. Suggestions will be made for improving school practices to reduce the drop-out rate. / Typescript. / "August, 1953." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 25-26).

To those familiar with schools, it is quite obvious that there is a definite problem of dropouts, and that this is particularly acute with those whose ability and interest do not fit them for the average school curriculum. Slow learners that constitute a large part of the dropout group are forced at least up to the point of compulsory attendance age to come to school. Realizing that our whole economic system is geared to competition, schools sometime assume they are justified in adopting the squeeze-out system also. But this very squeeze-out system, under the present form, is one of the basic reasons for dropout. / Typescript. / "August, 1952." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: W.
