At-Risk Students Schools are charged with a mission to teach all students to meet high standards. As a result of recent research educators have more information than ever before about how we can achieve this mission. In order to be successful, we must make use of all that we have learned in the areas of brain research, multiple intelligences and how students construct meaning. It is the responsibility of all professional educators to continue learning how to teach and to apply that knowledge of how students learn so that all students will succeed. THE AVERAGE CHILD I don't cause teachers trouble, my grades have been OK. I listen in my classes and I'm in school every day. My teachers think I'm average, my parents think so too. I wish I didn't know that 'cause there's lots I'd like to do. I'd like to build a rocket, I have a book that tells you how, or start a stamp collection-well there's no use in trying now. 'Cause since I found I'm average I'm just smart enough you see, to know there is nothing special that I should expect of me.

33. Providing Effective Schooling For Students At Risk ISSUE students who are placed at risk due to poverty, race, ethnicity, language, Why is there a need to focus especially on atrisk students? http://www.ncrel.org/sdrs/areas/issues/students/atrisk/at600.htm

Critical Issue: Providing Effective Schooling for Students at Risk ISSUE: Students who are placed at risk due to poverty, race, ethnicity, language, or other factors are rarely well served by their schools (Hilliard, 1989; Letgers, McDill, & McPartland, 1993). They often attend schools where they are tracked into substandard courses and programs holding low expectations for learning (Oakes, 1985; Wheelock, 1992). If schools are to achieve the desired goal of success for all students, they must hold high expectations for all, especially this growing segment of learners. They must view these students as having strengths, not "deficits," and adopt programs and practices that help all students to achieve their true potential. OVERVIEW: The question of what it means to be "at risk" is controversial. When children do not succeed in school, educators and others disagree about who or what is to blame. Because learning is a process that takes place both inside and outside school, an ecological approach offers a working description of the term at risk . In this view, inadequacies in any arena of lifethe school, the home, or the communitycan contribute to academic failure when not compensated for in another arena.

In 1997, more adolescents died from suicide than AIDS, cancer, heart disease, birth defects and lung disease. Suicide claims more adolescents than any disease or natural cause. Adolescents now commit suicide at a higher rate than the national average of all ages. The rate of adolescent suicide in adolescent males has tripled between 1960 and 1980. Suicide rates for adolescent females have increased between two to three fold. There have been striking increases in suicidal behaviors among African American males, Native American males and children under 14. Much of the increase can be accounted for by deaths due to guns.
