About the Book

The failure of alternative and continuation schools to educate our most vulnerable adolescent populations is slowly eliminating them from our educational landscapes. Millions of struggling teens, lacking options, are being set adrift without the necessary capabilities and without hope. But recent research can provide avenues of change to lead these student populations to academic achievement. Equipping educators with both the theoretical framework and a range of practical applications for program and classroom improvements, Beyond Dropping Out provides a look into successful alternative education that will elevate academic strugglers to academic successes.
