Abstract: It was the purpose of this study (1) to determine the causes of drop-outs in the entering classes of 1951-52 and 1952-53 of Castlewood High School -- Castlewood, Virginia; (2) to show why a student with the same intelligence, same sex and same age would stay in school whereas another equally matched student would drop out; and (3) to present student attitudes with regard to reasons for dropping out of school as revealed through a personal interview with each student.
