and Recovery Act of 2000''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Lowering the student dropout rate is one of the most 
        significant challenges facing educators today. Students must 
        stay in school in order to receive the education they need to 
        succeed in the new economy and contribute fully to American 
        society.
            (2) The ability of local educational agencies to lower the 
        student dropout rate has been inhibited by the lack of focus at 
        the Federal level and the limited availability of appropriate 
        dropout prevention-focused curriculum, instruction, 
        professional development, and administrative support services.
            (3) According to the National Dropout Prevention Network, 
        it is at the local and community level where school 
        improvements and change occur that will eventually have an 
        impact on the graduation rate of students. The focus of these 
        efforts should be concentrated on the most successful 
        strategies that research has identified as having an impact on 
        increasing the graduation rate. These strategies encompass--
                    (A) systemic renewal;
                    (B) community collaboration;
                    (C) professional development;
                    (D) family involvement;
                    (E) early childhood education;
                    (F) reading and writing programs;
                    (G) individualized instruction;
                    (H) instructional technologies;
                    (I) mentoring and tutoring;
                    (J) service learning;
                    (K) learning styles and multiple intelligences;
                    (L) violence prevention and conflict resolution;
                    (M) career education and workforce readiness;
                    (N) out-of-school experiences; and
                    (O) alternative public schooling.
            (4) The National Dropout Prevention Network has found that 
        the strategies described in paragraph (3) have been successful 
        in all school levels from K-12 in rural, suburban, or urban 
        centers. When schools or school districts develop a program 
        improvement plan that encompasses most or all of these 
        strategies, positive outcomes will result.
            (5) It is necessary to develop a number of model dropout 
        prevention programs to fully develop the effective strategies 
        listed above into comprehensive dropout prevention programs. 
        These model programs should be used as examples by schools 
        across the country that wish to implement similar programs. 
        Subsequently, a nationwide dropout prevention program, in order 
        to be effective, should be based on these model programs.
            (6) Dropout prevention and recovery programs which are 
        proven to be successful in lowering dropout rates need to be 
        disseminated to school and community leaders willing to adapt 
        and support these innovative programs in their schools and 
        community.
