First of all, good to see you back. Youngsters don't like studies and exams so much. That can be one reason of skipping high school. Another reason is most of them have got the thirst to earn money and become something at a low age. In certain cases, financial barrier may be a real reason.

They are shy and they have no money for school. But school is important so stay in school.

Do you mean those who are skipping schools or the ones who just can't get in one? I'm gonna talk about the latter one, because from the word barrier, I associate that more.
But most of the time:
-shortage of places
-their environment... even if a student is talented, he/she might not have prospects, because family, friends etc. are uneducated, they might not even think about sending the kid to school, or if the kid wants to go, they think that high schoolers are snobs and lazy bums who don't want to work hard, they don't wanna break out from comfortable lifestyles... this has an effect on kids, too
-school fees, price of textbooks
-kids rebelling, becoming nihilistic

Hello
I think there is multiple problems what prevent youth from attending high schools.
First of all, i think, is shortage of money, not everyone have enough money for books, etc... , Or they just know what they are gonna do in their future for sure and doesn't feel the need to educate.
Happy mylotting!
