High-School Dropouts among Native Americans.
Coladarci, Theodore
Journal of American Indian Education, v23 n1 p15-22 Oct 1983
A Montana study of 46 Native American high school dropouts found salient factors were perceived irrelevance/cultural insensitivity of curricula, perceived teacher indifference/failure to help with students' work, desire to be with other dropouts, problems at home, and the requirement that students attend school for the entire senior year.
