PLEASE HELP. I’m writing an essay for my AP English class.?

I want statistics for this particular section. Okay, the essay is about the school board wanting to lengthen the school day by adding one more period to the school curriculum. So instead of having 6 periods a day, you’d have 7. i agree with this theory “essay purposes only”.

This is my first introductory paragraph:

“As briefly mentioned in the above paragraph, it is believed that this theory will make it easier for students to get into a good college because they will have met all of the college requirements. There are way too many stories heard, about good students not being able to get into college because of insufficient credits or the right classes were not taken. And the lengthening of the school day will definitely help to prevent these types of situations from happening more often than not.”

Now all I need is like a statistic that shows how many kids DONT graduate school on time, or at all..because of insufficient credits. Basically, a statistic that supports my 1st para.

You can check your state educational website for graduation statistics, etc. — though I don’t know if it would be because of insufficient credits… usually not graduating is a combination of things. But I suggest keeping it local (based on your state and city information) — there would be no way to get a solid national statistic.

Only 7 periods? My school has 11.

Anyway, I would ask your school guidance counseler for that statistic or where to get it.
