The resulting data led to the appointment of mission support specialists, who worked to find students in the county s two high schools who were not on track for graduation and work with them individually to create a plan that would help them make obtaining their diploma a possibility. These specialists also began to identify eighth-grade students who were at risk of dropping out of school, to keep them on the path to graduation. “We are committed to the role of the mission support specialists,” Raines said. “Their work continues to improve, and the ability to locate and focus on students at risk has become the norm in all our schools.”
