And this just shows hoe main stream schools push blacks and hispanics to the side and thats the main reason for low graduation rights Mon, 08 May 2017 16:24:59 -0400 they talking about the mayor and how they re trying to improve graduation rates https://nowcomment.com/documents/77223?scroll_to=749974 https://nowcomment.com/documents/77223?scroll_to=749974 this is important because is tells how the people part of the board of ed is trying to help high school students graduate. this connects to me because schools need to start changing to that more students are able to graduate Wed, 10 May 2017 16:42:27 -0400 i see a group of little kid who are going to high school https://nowcomment.com/documents/77223?scroll_to=749941 https://nowcomment.com/documents/77223?scroll_to=749941 this is important because these students are getting extra time from now to start palling for college. they have the chance to start planning their future from now. this connects to me because i was never able to pan my future as early like these students Thu, 01 Jun 2017 15:12:01 -0400 me too https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742287 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742287 it was always because of who i surrounded myself with because i was always on top of my grades Mon, 24 Apr 2017 15:55:01 -0400 i also can relate https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742282 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742282 this video just showed me how coming to an alternative school was the best decision i made Mon, 24 Apr 2017 15:53:54 -0400 at this time in the video the students are comparing main stream schools and alternative schools https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742279 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742279 this is important because you get to see how alternative schools can be more fitting for someone then a regular main stream school Mon, 05 Jun 2017 16:01:08 -0400 at this point of the video students are talking about how alternative schools are better https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742271 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742271 i stopped here beauase its really crazy how so many students feel like alternative schools are better. its crazy because it just shows how some high schools really arent being there for students Mon, 24 Apr 2017 15:43:55 -0400 at this point in the video students are talking about the reasons why they want to drop out of school https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742253 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742253 i stopped here because its important to know what are the real reasons why kids are dropped out. this matters because if we know why then we can change it so there isnt so many kids dropping out. the main reason kids are dropping out is because the teachers, they feel that teachers and staff don't do their job right. this connects to me because i remember feeling that exact same way in my old school Mon, 24 Apr 2017 15:37:13 -0400 at this point in the film there are students talking about their experience in different schools https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742250 https://nowcomment.com/documents/75879?scroll_to=742250 i stopped here because alot of what this kids are saying i hear everyday from people in my school.this matters because it shows how similar we all are.
