I would tighten it up just a bit more: "A significant number of high school students drop out of school due to poor academic performance and poverty." You may also want to think about whether or not to put in a relationship between the two, such as "poor academic performance, often resulting from poverty."

It is OK but I think that I would state it: "A poor academic performance coupled with poverty level economics are causes for there being a significant number of high school drop outs

Try; "Significant numbers of high school students drop out each year due to poverty and inadequate educational instruction."
