Did you know that NCLB requires that public high schools must turn over private student contact information to local military recruiters? If they do not than they will lose federal funding for their schools.
Public schools must also allow military recruiter on campus to actively recruit students at lunch and after school, according to NCLB.
A Washington Post article, talks about how rural high school students are drawn to the military was written by Ann Scott Tyson. More than 44 percent of U.S. military recruits come from rural areas while only 14 percent come from major cities.
“Youths living in the most sparsely populated Zip codes are 22 percent more likely to join the Army, with an opposite trend in cities,” said Tyson.
