THE LACK OF EDUCATION, IN 2012, IS RECREATING A NEW TYPE OF "SLAVERY." In the 2000's and prior, there were several jobs that you could acquire with just a high school diploma, like a substitute teacher, a real estate agent, a real estate appraiser or a home day-care provider. In 2012, however, the rules are being changed. No less than an associate degree will be acceptable to do these same jobs now. With 1,000,000 students dropping out of high school per year and minorities graduating from high school at less than 50%, we are "creating" a new type of slavery...a class of people that don't have their "freedom papers" HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA.   01:02:00TravisLottnoEducation,Dropout Rates,Lott,Issues,StudentsTHE 13TH AMENDMENT MADE SLAVERY ILLEGAL, IN THE UNITED STATES.

Each year, 1,000,000 students dropout of American high schools, that's 1 every 26 seconds. In Georgia, the graduation rate is 67% for students and hovering around 50% for minorities. Couple these dismal numbers, with the fact that districts are slashing their budgets, INCREASING class sizes, DECREASING the amount of time that students go to school, CHANGING the states curriculum to the new CCGPS format, over burdening teachers with FURLOUGH days...CAN YOU SEE THE STORM BREWING?

Our traditional school year of 175 days is not enough to keep up with foreign students who are in school for upwards of 200 to 220 days, PLUS the extra tutorial services that they receive. South Korea recently had to ban tutorial services from operating after 10 pm. DO YOU EMPLOY TUTORIAL SERVICES TO ASSIST YOUR STUDENT? If we want to see our graduation rate increase, we have to get out of the mindset that the FREE education is good enough. We must be willing to INVEST our our children's future.  According to educational statistics: * 1,000,000 million students will dropout this year. * every 26 seconds, a student decides to dropout. *the national graduation rate is approximately 70% and about 55% for african-americans.
