Research shows that low academic performance, absenteeism, and grade retention are related to dropping out. Providing academic supports, such as tutoring or enrichment programs, helps address skill gaps and offset a cycle of frustration, and can enrich the academic experience for students who may be bored or disengaged. Academic struggles may also play a role in students feeling alienated from school, so incentives such as leadership opportunities in academic areas or rewards for improved performance may help increase academic and student engagement.
