High School dropout has become a significant impact on both the human and economic capital of the United States. The problem was that students with disabilities (SWD) were not graduating from high school to become productive citizens and contribute to the society socially or economically. The specific problem was the gap between the graduation rate of SWD and those without disabilities, in the state of Georgia was one of the widest in the nation. The purpose of this quantitative correlation study was to examine whether relationships and predictive values exist among graduation rate, retention rate, and the dropout rate for SWD in Southwest Georgia. This study was guided by a theoretical framework developed by Gagne, Condition of Learning Theory (CLT) specifies that external or internal conditions impact the learning environment or the type of learning that takes place in the educational setting. The target population was 6,643 SWD who attended high school in the southwest Georgia region between the academic school years 2015 and 2017. De-identified archival SWD graduation, retention, and dropout records in the southwestern region of the state of Georgia for the academic school years of 2015 to 2017 were analyzed using the Intellectus statistical software. Results indicated a moderate significant positive correlation existed between retention rate and dropout rate ( r = 0.65, p < .05), and neither retention rate or dropout rates were predictors of SWD graduation rate. The implications of the findings were that there are a number of negative outcomes associated with dropping out and the dropout rates for students with and without disabilities have increased at an alarming trend each year. Recommendations for educational leadership were to offer consistent specialized instruction and interventions to aide SWD to meet graduation expectations and to provide professional development for SWD educators to promote SWD matriculation towards graduation. Recommendation for future research was to replicate this quantitative correlational study with an expanded sample to include all 50 states and potential predictors and conduct a quantitative causal-comparative study to further examine the significant relationship found in the current study.
