I believe that some high school students drop out for many different reasons. I think some drop because their mental health is so bad that they need to go to a mental hospital and get help. they wont be able to do school while getting help. another reason is because they dont think school is right for them and wanna find something else they truly love for example owning their own bakery or making their own merch. Some students wanna drop out because school just isn't for them. Most of the time high school students who are also big on social media drop out so they can pursue what they love.
