Abstract	Summarizing and synthesizing seven research studies which focus on the problem of the Alaska Native school dropout, this report describes each research project, identifies research findings, and presents recommendations. The seven studies are presented via consideration of: (1) the characteristics of the student who has dropped out of school; (2)the characteristics of the student who has remained in school; (3) the differences between the students who have and those who have not dropped out of school; (4) the reasons certain dropouts have returned to school; and (5) the attitudes of students toward the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) boarding schools. In view of the studies under consideration, this report also examines: (1) the limited future orientation of the dropout; (2) the negative self-concept of the dropout; (3) the effects of school-community-planning and coordination; and (4) the relationship between parents and the educational system. Among the major recommendations presented are: (1) re-examination of school curricula and counseling services; (2) development of village procedures to prepare prospective boarding school students for boarding school life; (3) development of a school oriented identification system which would report dropouts to the appropriate agencies; (4) development of a school oriented post dropout plan; and (5) development of a planning and coordinating system within the BIA offices.
