Dropout Nation Analysis

Dropout Nation
In many ways I can relate to lawrence, Sparkle, Marcus and Marco. Everyday at school there are the same kind of problems that all of the students in dropout nation are having. For example how sparkle has a kid and left school, or how Marcus was always high and late for school, and how Lawrence had anger issues and went off on a lot of people even the ones that tried to help him. Students at my school come into school high and late for classes, most of them have anger issues and they will go off on teachers when they try to help. Students in our school will give up when things get hard. The teachers and principal still try and help because they care about the students and they want them to graduate.
What does education mean to
Respect means a lot of different things. The actual definition of respect is a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities,qualities, or achievements. To me respect means to listen to people when they are talking to you and to let them know you care about what they have to say.
What affect does my attitude about “life in general” have on how i can achieve my overall plan? I think your attitude has a lot to do with it.

When i watched dropout nation i interpreted that the characters Marcus, Sparkle, Marco, and lawrence all had similar characteristics. Their similarities were they all wanted to give up at one point.

They had a principal whose name was Rob, Also a counselor whose name is Brandi, she let marcus live with her so he would go to school and be there on time. Brandi cared about all her students but she just
Even though the staff tried and tried and tried to help all the other students they still didn't make any effort to even try to finish school. Sparkle moved and didn't finish school. Marcus was a junior and went to school the next year. Lawrence went to twilight and dropped out three days later. Marco is the only one that graduated and he went to the military right after.
For me to improve my overall academic and personal performance, I'm going to stay out of the drama. If I stay out of drama I will be able to stay focused and be able to to do my work and turn it in on time. I'm never going to give up. If I don't give up then I can never fail and I will make it through high school and graduate. I will be able to go to college and have a good life. Therefore I can never say I gave up and I will never give
