Graduation rate was 91.8 for CO 2024. But which HS had the lowest rate this year? |

| Check MSDE report cards, they have information for graduation rates. |

Where can you find that? |

Is MCPS really trying to hide their performance? Would be wild if true. |

You cannot really be that clueless. |

What's the point? |

| graduation rate for Hispanic/Latino students increased by 6.6 percentage points (probably still lower than other groups), and was up 12 percent for multilingual learners |

If you think about it, the rate for Latinos and Hispanics is much more significant than previous years. Hispanics/Latinos usually ranged from 75-80 percent not until now. |

There are some really interesting data points if you take the time to explore the msde report cards.
Northwood had a huge increase and got to over 91%, which is impressive but when you look at the disaggregated data they really improved on EML and IEP numbers. They need to have that principal mentor other principals. Watkins Mill had a huge increase as well and has one of the smallest gender gaps in grad rates in highly impacted schools. What is their principal doing to support Black and brown boys that other principals could learn from? |

| Teacher here and very skeptical of the 91% number. Admin can graduate pretty much anyone, it doesn't mean the students are actually learning more or are better prepared to join the real world. Ask college professors that teach freshmen and they'll probably tell you that the kids are not alright. |

Yep profs are in disbelief. Rude awakening when students get to college. |

Online make-up courses are easy to click through, Google answers, or use AI to breeze through. Graduation rates are a joke but no one wants to do anything about improving learning requirements or accountability for attendance.
Shocking to see my students fail classes over and over and still walk graduation in time. |

Not everyone goes to college. This is an incredibly classist comment. |
