Graduation Matters Gallatin working to reduce dropout rates
Every year about 60 students drop out of Bozeman High School. Another 47 drop out in Belgrade and 23 quit school in Livingston. Over the past decade, more than 1,000 local students have dropped out.
A coalition of Bozeman-area school and community leaders has been working for two years without fanfare to get more of those students to graduate.
Now they’re going public with the name Graduation Matters Gallatin, adopted from a statewide campaign launched by Montana Superintendent of Public Instruction Denise Juneau. They’re spreading the message that graduation makes a huge difference in the lives of kids and in the community’s future and economy.
