Hello. You have not shown the two states to which the question refers which prevents an answer from being created accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The rate of completion of secondary education in the country has decreased, mainly in the states with less economic power where the population suffers with higher unemployment rates and little social, political and economic infrastructure, which causes many young people to abandon high school in search of jobs with low requirements, but which can provide a slightly better quality of life.

This is worrying because students who drop out of high school end up stuck in a life without structure, as they are forced to take jobs with low pay and susceptible to abuse.
