| Zusammenfassung: | This study reconstructs schooling through the perspectives of a hundred dropbacks - dropouts who resumed their schooling - from the Pittsburgh public schools, and focuses on their perceptions of teachers, administrators, courses, peers, families, and neighborhoods. The research approach, which relies on oral interviews, maximizes students' responses from their own frames of reference, not from a closed set of prearranged questionnaires or surveys. The informants represented all of that city's high schools; this study therefore maintains a composite picture of an entire urban system This policy-oriented study, stressing school leaver prevention and resumption, explores four basic questions: Who left school? Why did these students leave school? What caused them to return? What intervention policies can be formulated to prevent students from leaving school? The results of this research on one city has wider implications, since student narratives are analyzed within broader historical, philosophical, and critical variables, along with a largely hostile school environment. This study recommends a variety of school reforms to foster academic engagement and create a caring learning community |
