The purpose of this study was to examine the Continued Schooling Experiences of high school girls in the Wee
Class Programs for the Cooling-Off Period. Interviews were conducted three times with six participants who kept
on studying at a high school under Giorgi's method. As a result, 30 sub-constituents were derived under nine
categories. The risk factors of dropout were: "Being forced to enter a high school," "Negative relationships" and
"Somatization symptoms". The encouraging factors of continued schooling were "Participating in the Wee-class
program," "Gaining experience of being comforted and communicated" and "Making future plans" The desirable
experiences to continued schooling were "Feeling respected and happy with understanding", "Enduring and
Holding up for graduation" and "Dreaming the Future". The essential meaning of this study can be "Enduring
and Holding up for Dream". The implications and limitation of this study were discussed, and the future
research directions were also suggested.
