Statistical Reports

The Department of Education annually collects a large variety of data from schools and districts - much of it required by state or federal mandates. Education data is used to inform state and local policymaking, local media, program decisions within districts and schools, and the work of educational nonprofits across the state. The quality of department efforts has been nationally recognized with awards from the American Educational Research Association and the National Center for Education Statistics at the U.S. Department of Education.

The graduation rates below are based on the 9th grade cohort of students that graduate in their class on time (in 4 years). Because of student mobility and transitions, it takes up to 6 years to ensure an accurate reflection of all students in each 9th grade cohort. For this reason, these 4 year rates include all students that flow through the system over a six-year period. In instances where there are not 6 years of data (2017 and 2018), the rates include the most recent data available.
