Even the President Understands the School Dropout Problem

The Associated Press (AP) reports President Obama will express deep concerns about the nation’s public school dropout rates in a major speech on Tuesday at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Per the AP, the president is not planning to offer any new legislation, and he will not propose disbanding the Bush administration’s No Child Left Behind law. The news service indicates the speech will add to earlier Obama administration comments in support of the charter school movement.
