  • The Rise of High School Dropouts in Adult Education
    The Rise of High School Dropouts in Adult Education: Making the Case for Raising the Compulsory School Attendance Age and Expanding Alternative Education Options in Connecticut November 2011 Bob Rath Kathryn Rock Ashley Laferriere Our Piece of the Pie® Executive Summary The following report highlights the issues facing high school dropouts in Connecticut and nationwide, as well as the policy measures that will result in improved student success. The Problem • Over 7,000 U.S. high school students drop out each day, costing the U.S. economy approximately $7.6 billion in potential annual earnings. In Connecticut, approximately 9,000 students dropped out of school in 2011. Each student costs the state an estimated $517,893 (compared to a high school graduate) over his/her lifetime, in lost fiscal contributions and increased costs associated with more severe health issues and higher incarceration rates, among others. • Dropouts share a number of common risk factors. They are often low-income, urban youth minorities that experience academic challenges, problematic behaviors, and difficult life events. Many potential dropouts do not have the appropriate number of credits for their age and intended grade. • Dropouts often turn to Adult Education to earn a secondary education credential such as a GED. In Adult Education, young dropouts do not receive the specialized services they require, and they prevent Adult Education programs from serving their target population. • Students underestimate both the difficulty of passing the GED test and the value of the credential to potential employers. Many students fail to complete the GED credential and those who do earn significantly less than high school graduates.

    2019 MICHIGAN EDUCATION FALL THE MAGAZINE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN SCHOOL OF EDUCATION 2 Bastedo helped to develop Landscape, a tool that provides context about the opportunities that applicants have—or do not have—in their communities and high schools. His ongoing research informs college admissions practices and strategies, and will reveal the role that Landscape plays in efforts of colleges to admit a diverse freshman class. The newly launched TeachingWorks Resource Library supports teacher educa- tors with free, high-quality curriculum materials. We follow the researchers and FALL 2019 FALL product designers through their use of the design thinking process to discover • how they developed and refined the Resource Library and how it is being used. As educators, we empower students to be innovators. Ninth graders at The School at Marygrove, which we opened this fall in partnership with the Detroit Public Schools Community District, are taking Introduction to Human Centered Design and Engineering at their new school in northwest Detroit. Taught by the first “resident” of the Teaching School, Ms. Sneha Rathi, the curriculum was co-developed with a team of graduate students, staff, and faculty from the SOE. Students in Rathi’s class are learning how they can use design thinking to address challenges or needs in their community. I am proud of these young students; our teacher education graduate, Sneha Rathi; our graduate students; and our faculty and staff who are working together to build and study innovative education opportunities. Their work gives us all hope and inspiration. We also began work with the first cohort of Dow Innovation Teacher Fellows MICHIGAN EDUCATION EDUCATION MICHIGAN Dean Elizabeth Birr Moje at the SOE homecoming tailgate, October 5, 2019.

  • Summary of 2018-19 Cohort Graduation Rates
    Summary of 2018-19 Four-year and Five-year Cohort Graduation and Completer Rates January 23, 2020 The four-year cohort graduation rate follows students from the beginning of their first year in high school to the end of their fourth year in high school in order to determine the percentage of those students who graduate within four years. This year’s four-year cohort is made up of the students who first entered high school in 2015-16. The original set of students who enter Oregon high schools for the first time in 2015-16 is adjusted for students who transfer into the Oregon public school system, transfer out to private or home school, leave the state or country, or are deceased. The cohort graduation rate is calculated by taking the number of students in the adjusted cohort who earned a standard diploma within four years and dividing that by the total number of students in the adjusted cohort. See the tables below for the cohort rates for all students and for various student groups. In January 2019 ODE reported the four-year graduation rate for the students who first entered high school in 2014-15. The four-year cohort graduation rate followed those students from the fall of 2014 through the summer of 2018. This year, ODE followed the same cohort of students for an additional year in order to determine the five-year graduation rate for that cohort. ODE also reports a cohort completer rate along with the cohort graduation rates. This rate includes students who earned a standard high school diploma, as well as those who were awarded an extended high school diploma, adult high school diploma, or GED (known as Other Completers), within the four or five years being measured.

  • Robert Griffin
    ROBERT GRIFFIN Interviewed by Dennis Cawthorne July 25, 1996 Sponsored by the Michigan Political History Society P.O. Box 4684 East Lansing, MI 48826-4684 Transcript: MPHS Oral History of Robert P. Griffin, interviewed by Dennis Cawthorne, July 1996 This interview is part of the James J. Blanchard Living Library of Michigan Political History. Dennis Cawthorne (DC): Robert P. Griffin has had an exciting and remarkable political career that has spanned nearly 40 years of Michigan and American political history: United States Representative, United States Senator, author of major legislation, confidant of Presidents, Supreme Court Justice of the Michigan Supreme Court. He has been all of these things and more. DC: RG was born in Detroit, grew up in Garden City, and graduated from Dearborn Fordson High School. He served 14 months in the Infantry in World War II in Europe. After the war, he graduated from Central Michigan University, and the University of Michigan Law School. DC: Bob, what was the spark that caused you to get interested and excited about politics? Robert Griffin (RG): Well, like you and a lot of others, I know here and there, in junior high or someplace, I was perhaps a class president or a student council president or something of that kind, but I don't think I really became interested until I went to the Wolverine Boys' State, between the junior and senior year I had at Fordson High School. There, somehow, things seemed to come together. I was a candidate for governor, but I didn't have the support, so a deal was made, and I ran for the lieutenant governor and was elected and spent the day, as these young people do every year, in the legislative chambers in Lansing.

  • SCC's School of Continuing Education Student Satisfaction Survey
    Santiago Canyon College School of Continuing Education Student Satisfaction Survey Results, Spring 2014 June 2014 Due to recent severe financial cuts, administrators have had to make cuts in all areas of the college, including the intrusive move from its main facilities of Orange Education Center on Batavia in Orange. It is imperative that we monitor student satisfaction to understand how these issues have impact, if any, on their perception in program offerings, support services and resources available to them, learning environment, as well as facilities usage as it relates to the Santiago Canyon College School of Continuing Education (SCC-SCE). Findings will assist us to serve students appropriately. At the end of Spring 2014, staff conducted an online student satisfaction survey of the students actively enrolled at the three main SCC-SCE sites (SCC main campus, the OEC Provisional Education Facility, and the Rehabilitation Education Institute (REI). The survey provided an opportunity for students to report their levels of satisfaction with the programs, services and resources available to them as SCC-SCE students. In addition, the survey included questions regarding their educational background, as well as questions regarding their employment status, family income, etc. Respondents come from diverse demographics and economic backgrounds. Forty-three percent have had some college education, even post-graduate studies, and 39% have less than high school degree. The majority of respondents are 30 years of age or older (76%), female (63%) and Latino (70%). Though respondents identified more than 20 native languages, nearly two- thirds (66%) of the respondents’ primary language is Spanish. More than half (62%) of the respondents reside in households of three or more family members, with low annual household income (63% with less than $40,000 per year), and 53% worked (full and/or part time).
