Abstract
Determining factors that lead to at risk students dropping out was investigated by interviewing volunteer participants who attended Mt. Blue High School and exited early, not receiving a high school diploma. The results of the study indicated that the majority of participants attributed their failure to graduate in four years to personal or family related factors.
