Hello, all. I just viewed a webinar with The Alliance for Excellent Education and Communities in Schools on ”The Economic Benefits of Reducing the Dropout Rate” They were using the language “the best economic stimulus package is a high school diploma” I thought that might get the attention of the business community and might be a good lead in to the letter. I would encourage you to view the information on their website that makes a strong case for investing in reducing dropouts if you haven’t here is the link.
