Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis
The author hypothesizes that the program to improve high school morale is working. Why? Because students who think they are failing tend to drop out, and the dropout rate last year was much lower than the previous year.
Notable Assumptions
The author assumes there’s no other reason last year’s dropout rate was abnormally low or the previous year’s dropout rate was abnormally high. In addition, she assumes a higher school morale makes students more likely to think they’re succeeding, and that there’s no other reason besides the program for morale to have improved.
