High school dropout rates

Drop out rates in high schools across the nation are at an all time high. Some high schools have been deemed by the media as "drop out factories." This problem must be approached. I believe that this is a direct result of teachers who don't care about the success of their students. The high dropout rates are also a direct result of a cirriculm that pushes students to go to college and does not provide other alternatives for students. What do you think about the issue?

So what about this National Childhood Obesity Walk?!

I think this is a great idea! For those of you who weren't in New Orleans, this idea is that youth organizations across the nation collaborate on one project, that project being a national walk day that raises awareness of childhood obesity. Each city would have it's own walk. This could be HUGE, but we need as much support as possible from all youth from all cities.

Let me know if you're interested! Post on this page and sign up or ask questions or give advice. It's easy, just make a google account and post (it takes 5 seconds...).

Thanks for your support and get your friends involved too!
