Should the Dropout Age Be Raised?

President Obama asked each state to raise the age of dropout to 18 at a state speech. This is the first time Washington has participated directly in the problem traditionally determined by the state. Do you think that more states should ask students to stay at school until they are 18 years old? why?

Domestic law recently increased the age of dropout to 18, but it is difficult for many people to win. For example, in Alaska last year, such laws were examined in Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, and Rhode Island, but only Rhode Island actually changed the law.

The senior policy analyst, Sunny Die, of the school says: . National Council Meeting of the National Council "The family school group is opposed to raising the schooling obligation age because there is a great concern about the financial influence of this budget tightening in particular."

In Kentucky State, the law resigned at the age of 16 in 1934 and raised to 18 years failed twice. The news of Steven L. Baysier governor this month is pushed forward again

The age of dropout is historically 16 years old in most areas of the country and is rising. Currently, 21 provinces and the District of Columbia are obliged to attend by the age of 18 without fail, and 11 states are obliged to attend until 17 years old.

Considering that Washington offers only about 10% of the educational funds, federal efforts to develop policies in areas reserved for the state may cause harassment.

STUDENT: Do you think that the federal government should have a say in this decision? Does rising school age have a positive impact on school, or does a student group allow admission? Does it affect their educational experience? How will this affect the prominent economy in the North Korean speech? If you are the governor who wants to keep his age at 16, what would you do if you are the president trying to raise it to 18? why?
