[quote=Anonymous][quote]After three years progress has been made including:

• More than 62 percent of middle and high school students are[b] on track to be ready for college or career,[/b] up from 54 percent in 2013 and 47 percent in 2012. 
• Four-year[b] graduation rate [/b]up to 87.4 percent compared to 86.1 percent in 2013. 
• Fewer schools in [b]the state's "needs improvement" category[/b] (636 compared to 779 in 2013) and more in the "distinguished" category (289 compared to 179 in 2013).

In order to relate this to CC I would have to know how "on track to be ready for college or career" is measured.  Does this have to do with CC tests or is it related to classes taken in high school or what?

Graduation rate may have nothing to do with CC.  Graduation rates have been increasing all over, even in non CC states.

There may be fewer schools in the "needs improvement" category simply because the NCLB requirements for AYP were waived.  Lots of schools would have been in the "needs improvement" category if it had not been for the waivers.

Don't stick you fork in anything yet.   :wink:
