Concept information

Preferred term

class inequality: high school dropout rates  

Definition(s)

  • A consistent relationship exists between social class and pathways through K-12 schooling: success at school increases as a function of parental social class. The consequences of these effects influence the extent to which individuals engage and succeed in postsecondary schooling, if at all, as well as the kinds of post-secondary schooling: vocational, community college, or university.
