National Dropout Prevention Month is observed every October and aims to keep students in school by uniting parents, teachers, and community members to support education. It emphasizes the importance of early intervention to address challenges that lead to students dropping out, highlighting that graduating improves job prospects and financial stability. Typical actions during this month include offering tutoring or mentoring, promoting career and technical learning, hosting resource drives, and rallying family involvement to enhance student engagement. The initiative encourages the use of data to identify warning signs early and build support networks with local partners to provide additional resources. National Dropout Prevention Month serves as a dedicated time to raise awareness about dropout prevention and to inspire community action to help students succeed.
