performed below average in mathematics in 2012
and is ranked 27th
 The United States ranks 17th in reading, and

DROPOUTS AND POORLY PREPARED STUDENTS
NEGATIVELY AFFECT THE ECONOMY
 Over 5,700 students did not graduate from Hawaii’s high
schools in 2010.
 Hawaii could save as much as $92.7 million in health care
costs over the lifetimes of each class of dropouts.
 Hawaii’s high schools graduated all of their students, the
state could save as much as $13.7 million a year.
 Hawaii’s economy could see a combination of crimerelated savings and additional revenue of about $18
million each year if the male high school graduation rate
increased by just 5 percent.4
