New laws try to keep teens in school
Montgomery Advertiser, Alabama – October 26, 2010
Up until 2009, 16-year-old Alabamians had the authority to make a life-altering decision. Whether they knew it or not, this decision would impact their future earning potential, increase their likelihood of going to prison and possibly earn them a one-way ticket into poverty. They could decide to drop out of school. The Alliance for Excellent Education estimates that the students who dropped out in 2008 will cost the state of Alabama $ 1 billion in lost wages over their lifetimes.

More High School Students Acquire Online Credits
The New York Times, Houston, TX – November 5, 2010
Brett Rusnock can follow his students’ every move on his laptop: how much time they spend on computers each day at Waltrip High School in Houston, their scores on quizzes and when they stop working. He even gets e-mail alerts when they toil at home into the wee hours. “I can play Big Brother a little bit with this,” Mr. Rusnock said. Mr. Rusnock is not a teacher. He is a grad coach, one of 27 in Houston monitoring thousands of students who take so called credit-recovery courses online. Like many other districts across the state, particularly those with high dropout rates, the Houston Independent School District offers these self-paced make-ups to any student who fails a class.
