Do not DROP OUT

Science Daily has just reported on a study that says if you drop out of high school, you’ll have 5.1 fewer years of “perfect health.”

Of course, teenagers aren’t particularly known for examining long-term consequences of their actions, but this might one more piece of information to share with students along with teaching about the economic impact of dropping-out (see “How Much Is A College Degree Worth?”).

Thanks to Inside School Research for the tip.
