The drop out rate was 4.1% down from 4.3% the previous year. However this is still about 7,400 students who drop out of Oregon schools each year. The national drop out average is still high. According to the National Education Association (NEA.Org), in 2006 the national drop out rate was 68%. What is even more shocking is the amount of students who study at home. According to NCES.Org, 12% of 4th graders spend one hour at home studying while the number increased to 37% of 12th graders. The numbers may increase as grade levels increase, however that means 63% of 12th graders are not studying at home. http://www.wowarticlesonline.com/Article/Study-Skills---A-Learned-Behavior/38863 Wed, 28 Nov 2007 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.wowarticlesonline.com/Article/Study-Skills---A-Learned-Behavior/38863 There are many forms of drug and alcohol abuse. Some people binge drink while others drink just to get though the day or to cure their hang over from the previous night.
