Here are some numbers that make this poor, disabled poet's little head spin. We spend over $250,000 a year in salaries for attendance officers, yet nothing in dropout prevention (except for $30,000 in grant money). With our poor retention rates, it doesn't appear it's money (a lot of money) well spent. Possibly we would be better off just taking that money and buying everyone an alarm clock. It might be worth a shot.
