Entry Three - Draft Two
I feel like a lot of people like to blame the high dropout rates at
public schools on the schools themselves as a scapegoat. Because they
don't know who else to blame. But lets be honest the kids that go to
smaller schools are the ones that are more driven to succeed. They have
their parents to impress with their grades. While at big public schools
you do still have some students like that while others that aren't. You
have immigrants and people who could careless about their grades. Those
are people that won't due better no matter how much their teacher's push
them. So yes the dropout rates are higher in big public schools but the
students are different too. So I feel like then information presented
is a bit off.

i would like to know the sources that you use to get this information. Do you have a side that you support more on this topic? I do like that you compared both private and public school, but i think including statistic will make the argument that you're trying to make stronger. And also include cited information from your research so that the reader will know how your view came to be.
ReplyDeleteI like that you stated some misconceptions about dropout rates and public schools. It was a good lead into your topic. Providing some examples or statistics would be great in establishing you research with this line of inquiry. Also, maybe incorporating some personal experiences or opinions will give your inquiry more depth.
