abstract="Persistent school drop-out rates signal limitations in existing research and development frameworks. Alternatives are needed. The alternative framework provided here begins with a new conception of student success. It illuminates the need for P-16, whole systems education reform. It emphasizes early warning and rapid response systems focused on four target populations, while illuminating the special needs of high-poverty school communities challenged by social exclusion and social isolation. Improved dropout planning depends on expanded models of school improvement, new roles for social/health service providers, expanded conceptions of teaching and learning, and genuine collaboration.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
