Start a Afterschool Homework Help Program at a School
Each year hundreds of students drop out of highschool, mostly because of grades. But what is those students had a place to study, to get help? Having a Homework Help or similar program can reduce these rates by getting students the help they need. You can host it in the library and get teachers or upperclassmen students that are good at certain subjects to help out. They can do homework, study for tests, get help with classwork they don't understand.
