Race&Ethnicity, "Hispanic drop outs mystery

I never knew that there were a higher Hispanic drop out percentage then Bocks.Reading this article motivated me to read more of the actions that are taking place around. In the article "Hispanic Drop out of school and belief that they attain in there head that shows the reason why they drop out of school,and most of those reason are facts.Some hispanic girls students drop out of school because they get pregnant at a early age,witch means they won't have time for school witch means they have to go to work or stay home to take care of their kids. Some of the other reasons why some hispanic kids drop out of school is because they're failing their classes, they are bored in school,or they believe their not getting that much attention.those kids felt discriminated,they believe that they were looked at differently from everyone else. Some of those hispanic kids believe that the school doesn't like them because,and they don't get a special language help.. They feel as if they're being stereotype by people in the school,they don't fit in with the norms in the school.The article also explains and stated that hispanic drop out are twice more then blacks drop out and most of the hispanic drop outs are foreign norms. It also stated that peer pressure also play a role in the drop out of hispanic,and they feel like they're being prejudice. Now there is a program that targets hispanics drop outs and they are trying to help those kids stay I'm school. I never really had a problem like that in school,witch means I can't really relate this article to my own experience.
