Among students ages 14-17, the number of truants is one in 10. In one township in Indiana one in every three students is a chronic truant. No longer is the family the only unit of care for children; schools are now the primary units of education and are responsible for at least 6-8 hours of student connectedness and social bonding. Thus, truancy prevention and school engagement is a shared responsibility. This study focused on the school environment as a key factor in school disengagement. The results give some indication of what should be done when advocating for programs and activities in middle schools that would positively impact rates of chronic truancy.Item Student Bond = Student Success: Categorizing opportunties for bonding to prevent truancy and dropout(2011-10) Gentle-Genitty, CarolynItem Study suggests schools need to be more creative in attempts to keep students in school(2008-04-04) IU School of Social WorkItem Successful Preparation for School and the Future: Creating a Master Student(2009-07-22) Gentle-Genitty, CarolynItem Understanding Juvenile Delinquent Behavior through Social Bonding(International Association for Truancy and Dropout Prevention (IATDP), 2019) Gentle-Genitty, Carolyn; School of Social WorkSocial control theory is often used to understand the many facets of social bonding opportunities and juvenile delinquency behavior. Various theories have been used to help explain delinquent behaviors and the reason for such actions against the community such as strain, differential association, social learning, symbolic interaction, and social control theories. However, social control theory and its four elements of social bonding (attachment, involvement, commitment, and belief) seem to be the most effective for understanding the dynamics of why young individuals participate in delinquency.
