Action Tips: Host Your Own Drop-Out Prevention Summit

Does your high school have a high drop-out rate? Change that by holding your own Drop-Out Prevention Summit in your school.

Dropout Prevention Summits

The Dropout Prevention Summits are intended to build a sense of urgency around the crisis, secure a commitment to action from leaders in all sectors, and most importantly, to result in follow-up action plans to strengthen current efforts and initiate new strategic activity to help more young people graduate from high school ready for college, work, and life.

Tools for Success

America's Promise Alliance has developed the Summit Toolbox to help plan and execute successful summit events that lead to action on the local and state level.

The Summit Toolbox contains tips, templates, reference materials, and other resources to help you plan a successful dropout prevention summit that integrates critical components for success.

With our new program at my high school, we were trying to think of ways to get incoming freshmen motivated about school, and STAY that way for four years. THIS IS A REALLY GOOD IDEA!! We are looking for a way to incorporate this into our new program..

Well I love that idea I am starting highschool in the fall and want to guide everyone in my age group and younger to a successful life. It seems as if it is a good idea but I'd like for my friends to join me but I on't know how to confront them with this idea
