A majority of U.S. high school students say they get 1 in class every day, and more than one out of 2 has considered dropping out, according to a survey released on Wednesday. The survey of 81,000 students in 3 states found two-thirds of high school students complain of boredom, usually because the subject matter was 4 or their teachers didn’t seem to care about them.
