More than half of 6-year olds out of school
« on: June 03, 2008, 04:24:06 PM »
Even before they've set foot on school grounds, Bohol's children seem to have already set their minds on being school dropouts.

Department of Education (DepEd) Bohol superintendent Dr. Elpidio Jala told the Bohol Chronicle that 56% of the children of age six been found out not enrolled for Grade I.

I was enrolled in Grade 1 at the age of 7.  I don't think it's for the children to "set their minds" on being school dropouts.  Parents should encourage (read: force) their children to be in school.
