In this episode, our team dives into the complex feelings surrounding the back-to-school season.

We explore why some students eagerly anticipate the first days and events like homecoming, yet struggle to maintain enthusiasm throughout the year. The discussion touches on the reasons teens consider dropping out, from personal challenges to societal pressures. We also examine the gender differences in dropout rates and the factors contributing to these statistics.

Join us as we discuss potential solutions to keep students engaged, such as making lessons more interactive and the idea of reintroducing recess and nap time in high school.
