In "Dropouts, Diplomas, and Dollars: U.S. High Schools and the Nation's Economy" author Jason Amos discusses the consequences of dropping out of high school. He supports these consequences by showing statistics in categories that range from total income to unemployment rates. The purpose of this scholarly journal is to inform young adults of the troubles they will be faced with if they decide to drop out of high school. With the subject of this piece being about dropouts, then I believe that Amos is targeting high school students.
