Keep Adult Education and regional occupation centers and programs "The Future of Adult and Career Education in Los Angeles: A Personal Plea" 40% of all high school Students partake in Adult Education classes to satisfy high school diploma requirements. In 2010-2011 over 88,000 students in partook in DACE programs to make up credits and earn a diploma. Over 51,000 took ROP (Regional Occupation Programs). Many former drop-outs managed to graduate with the help of DACE programs. In other words: There is an absolutely Certainty that high school dropout rates will SKYROCKET if adult and career education is eliminated! ---------------- Sign the petition: _http://www.change.org/petitions/think-education-is-expensive-try-ignorance_ (http://www.change.org/petitions/think-education-is-expensive-try-ignorance) ============================================================================ == Lee Siu Hin National Coordinator National Immigrant Solidarity Network _http://www.ImmigrantSolidarity.org_ (http://www.immigrantsolidarity.org/) Action LA Network _http://www.ActionLA.org_ (http://www.actionla.org/) Peace NO War Network _http://www.PeaceNOWar.net_ (http://www.peacenowar.net/) Activist Video Service _http://www.ActivistVideo.org_ (http://www.activistvideo.org/) New York: (212)330-8172 Los Angeles: (213)403-0131 Washington D.C.: (202)595-8990 Chicago: (773)942-2268 * join the immigrant Solidarity Network daily news litserv, send e-mail to: isn-subscr...@lists.riseup.net Please consider making a donation to the important work of ActionLA Network, Peace NO War Network and National Immigrant Solidarity Network Send check pay to: Action LA/AFGJ National Immigrant Solidarity Network P.O.
