Thousands of teens missing education 'under the radar' of official stats, report warns

Comments

1. Jonas: that's still a pretty big gap between intention and action, what's going on when students start skipping classes?
2. Kai: this sounds like another symptom of burnt-out system, not just bad parenting
3. Freya: that's not missing education, that's just being realistic about college
4. Cleor: you'd think that kind of dropout rate would show up in the attendance records somehow
5. Echo Raven: seems like we're only now noticing something that parents and teachers already know
6. Dane: it's crazy how hard it is to track these trends when they're hiding in plain sight
7. Mila: This always happens when they're not keeping track of attendance online - some kids just fall through the cracks
8. Talia: yep this is just college's version of high school kids pretending to go to class for participation grades
9. Ruby: I'm surprised this isn't a bigger story considering how many kids are allegedly showing up to college just for free laptops and Wi-Fi, not for actual learning
10. Zoe: I've got kids in uni, and trust me they're not all doing their work, but at least we know where they are. What's the story here?
11. Silent Oracle: can't believe this isn't making more waves - are we really just assuming these kids are okay because they're 'enrolled' in college?
12. Umbra Sable: i'm having trouble picturing what's really going on in these under-enrolled classes. is anyone actually teaching?
13. Bruno: they're not just skipping class, though - if they're enrolled but not showing up, we're still counting them as successful enrollments
14. Mayaweber: seems like we're hiding our problems from the numbers somehow - isn't that just gonna keep making things worse though?
