Although he may have average or even arjove average intelligence, he dis plays less academic ability than other students and is usually failing or almost fail ing in his school work. According to school offic ials, he most often leaves school because of lack of in terest or motivation, ineffec tual home conditions frequent ly involving parents who are unimpressed or contemptuous of formal education, persistent truancy, or severe reading difficulty. The report of the "drop out" research project appears in the January Bulletin of the Oregon School Study Council, published by the University of Oregon school of education. Conducting the study were Thomas Higby, executive sec retary of the Oregon School Boards association, headquar tered at the university, and former graduate students El liott Becken, now assistant superintendent in the Mcdford public school system, ana George Timmons, now at the Portland Center of the Gen eral Extension Division. Despite the fact that Ore gon has a drop-out rate of 26.8 per cent, representing the per centage of students who enter the ninth grade but fail to graduate, compared with a na tional average of 33.2 per cent, drop outs remain "a ma jor educational problem" in the state, the researchers wrote. With unskilled jobs reduced by half during the past decade and an increasing demand for highly trained personnel, "the high school diploma . . . has emerged as the absolute mini mum educational achieve- nient," the report stales. The study showed "that the larger the school the lower the drop-out rate." Of the 110 Oregon high schools surveyed no school which enrolled more than 600 students fell in the high or very high drop out categories in which from 40 to 60 per cent or more of the students fall to graduate. However, 17 smaller schools came within these high drop out categories, with the high est percentages in those schools enrolling less than 100 students. The majority of Ore gon schools came within the medium drop-out range of 20 to 311 per cent. Since these findings do not agree with national surveys which have shown no relation ship between drop-out rate and size of school, the re searchers warn that the fig ures appear to have local, but not general, significance. The study also revealed that lower drop-out rates arc associated with schools which have more extensive peripher al and non-academic programs and services to the students. The most extensive non-aca-1 dcmlc programs are found in the larger high schools, and this, coupled with the greater number of guidance and coun seling personnel available, may help account for the lower drop-out rates in these schools, the report said. Although most drop outs are failing in school, the study showed, "a high percentage of drop-outs have C averages and could complete their high school educations successfully." More than 50 per cent of the drop-outs have average IQs of 00 to 110, indicating that they are capable of high school work, and about 10 per cent have above-average IQs of 1 10 or more.
