It also provided insight into their perceptions of the success factors and challenges that they felt impacted their ability to successfully promote to the tenth-grade, and thus, remain on-track for graduation.

It is the purpose of this survey (1) to study those factors which surround the school, affecting it and even to some extent determining the purposes of the school; (2) to examine the internal structure of the school; and (3) to recommend such changes in the internal structure as …
