Book excerpt: This report presents the number of high school graduates, the Averaged Freshman Graduation Rate (AFGR), and the dropout data for grades 9-12 for public schools in school year 2008-09. State Education Agencies report these counts of graduates, dropouts, and enrollments to the National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Common Core of Data (CCD) nonfiscal survey of public elementary/secondary education as part of the Cooperative Education Statistics System established in section 157 of the Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, part C and the U. S. Department of Education's ED"Facts" data collection system. Although data from seven sequential school years are presented in tables 3 and 7, only comparisons between the 2007-08 and 2008-09 school years are presented in the text. Selected findings include: (1) Across the United States, the 50 states and the District of Columbia reported that a total of 3,039,015 public school students received a high school diploma in 2008-09, resulting in a calculated Averaged Freshman Graduation Rate (AFGR) of 75.5 percent (table 1); (2) Across all reporting states and the District of Columbia, the AFGR was highest for Asian/Pacific Islander students (91.8 percent) (table 2); (3) A comparison of data from 2008-09 to data from the prior school year, 2007-08, shows a percentage point or greater increase in the AFGR for 22 states and the District of Columbia (table 3); (4) Across the United States, the 50 states and the District of Columbia reported 607,789 dropouts from high school (grades 9-12), resulting in a calculated overall event dropout rate of 4.1 percent in 2008-09 (table 4); (5) Across all reporting states and the District of Columbia, the calculated dropout rates increased as grade level increased (table 5); (6) Across all 49 states and the District of Columbia that were able to report high school dropouts by race/ethnicity, the calculated dropout rate was the lowest for Asian/Pacific Islander st at 2.4 percent and White students at 2.7 percent (table 6); (7) Comparisons between high school dropout rates in the 2007-08 and 2008-09 school years showed an increase of a percentage point or more in two states and the District of Columbia. A decrease by the same margin or greater was found in three states (table 7); and (8) Across the 45 states and the District of Columbia that were able to report high school dropouts by gender, the dropout rate was higher for males than for females at 3.6 percent and 2.7 percent, respectively (table 8). Methodology and Technical Notes are appended. (Contains 8 tables and 8 footnotes.).

Book excerpt: This report presents the number of high school graduates, the Averaged Freshman Graduation Rate (AFGR), and the dropout data for grades 9 through 12 for public schools in school year 2007-08. The counts of graduates, dropouts, and enrollments by grade are from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Common Core of Data (CCD) nonfiscal surveys of public elementary/secondary education. The data for this collection were reported to NCES through the U. S. Department of Education's ED"Facts" data collection system by state education agencies (SEAs). Although data from six sequential school years are presented in tables 3 and 7, only comparisons between the 2007-08 and 2006-07 school years are presented in the text. This report includes counts of high school graduates for school year 2007-08 for 49 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Data for high school graduates were missing from CCD reports for South Carolina, the Bureau of Indian Education, the U.S. Department of Defense domestic and overseas dependents schools, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and Guam. Graduate counts were reported by race/ethnicity for 48 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Delaware did not report graduate counts by race/ethnicity. The AFGR could not be calculated by race/ethnicity for Nevada as enrollments by race/ethnicity were not reported for the 2004-05 school year. This report includes 2007-08 school year dropout data for 49 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The high frequency of missing data resulted in the suppression of dropout counts from Vermont. The reported dropout counts for Puerto Rico produced unrealistically low dropout rates and were therefore suppressed (see Appendix A for more details). The Bureau of Indian Education, the Department of Defense domestic and overseas dependents schools, American Samoa, the Northern Marianas, and Guam did not report dropouts. Selected findings include: (1) Across the United States, excluding South Carolina, a total of 2,965,286 public school students received a high school diploma in 2007-08, resulting in an Averaged Freshman Graduation Rate (AFGR) of 74.9 percent; (2) Across all reporting states, the Averaged Freshmen Graduation Rate (AFGR) was highest for Asian/Pacific Islander students (91.4 percent); (3) A comparison of data from 2007-08 to data from the prior school year, 2006-07, shows a percentage point or greater increase in the Averaged Freshmen Graduation Rate (AFGR) for 16 states and the District of Columbia; (4) There were 613,379 dropouts from high school (grades 9 through 12) with an overall event dropout rate of 4.1 percent across all 49 reporting states and the District of Columbia in 2007-08; (5) Across all reporting states, the dropout rates increased as grade level increased; (6) Across all 47 states that were able to report high school dropouts by race/ethnicity the dropout rate was lowest for Asian/Pacific Islanders at 2.4 percent; (7) Comparisons between high school dropout rates in the 2006-07 and 2007-08 school years could be made for 48 states and the District of Columbia; and (8) Across the 47 states that were able to report high school dropouts by gender, the dropout rate was higher for males than for females at 4.6 percent and 3.5 percent, respectively.

Book excerpt: This report presents the number of high school graduates, the Averaged Freshman Graduation Rate (AFGR), and dropout data for grades 9 through 12 for public schools in school year 2006-07. The counts of graduates, dropouts, and enrollments by grade (which serve as the denominators for the graduation and dropout rates) are from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), Common Core of Data (CCD) nonfiscal surveys of public elementary/secondary education. The data for this collection were reported to the NCES through the U. S. Department of Education's "EDFacts" data collection system by state education agencies (SEAs). These data represent high school graduates receiving regular diplomas and dropouts for the 2006-07 school year. The report includes counts of high school graduates for school year 2006-07 for 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Data for high school graduates were missing from CCD reports for the Bureau of Indian Education, the U.S. Department of Defense domestic and overseas dependents schools, and Guam. Graduate counts were reported by race/ethnicity, at the state level, for 48 states. New York and Kentucky did not report graduate counts by race/ethnicity. Race/ethnicity graduate counts for the District of Columbia were suppressed due to inaccuracy. The AFGR could not be calculated by race/ethnicity for Nevada as enrollments by race/ethnicity were not reported for the 2004-05 school year. This report includes 2006-07 school year dropout data for 49 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The high counts of missing data resulted in the suppression of dropout counts from Vermont. The low district-level response rate for 9th and 10th grade dropouts for Pennsylvania resulted in the suppression of the total high-school dropout rate (grades 9 through 12), and the grade 9 and 10 individual dropout rates. Selected findings include: (1) Across the United States, a total of 2,892,351 public school students received a high school diploma in 2006-07, resulting in an averaged freshman graduation rate of 73.9 percent; (2) Across all reporting states, the AFGR was highest for Asian/Pacific Islander students (91.2 percent); (3) A comparison of data from 2006-07 with data from the prior school year, 2005-06, shows a percentage point or greater increase in the AFGR for 18 states; (4) There were 617,948 dropouts from high school (grades 9 through 12) among 48 reporting states and the District of Columbia in 2006-07; (5) Among the reporting states and the District of Columbia, the dropout rates increased as grade level increased; (6) Among the states that were able to report high school dropouts by race/ethnicity and the District of Columbia, the dropout rate was lowest for Asian/Pacific Islanders at 2.6 percent; (7) Among the 46 states for which comparisons between 2005-06 and 2006-07 could be made, the event dropout rate increased by a tenth of a percentage point or more for 17 states, decreased by a tenth of a percentage point or more for 21 states, and remained the same for the remaining 8 states; and (8) Across the 46 states that were able to report high school dropouts by gender, the dropout rate was higher for males than for females at 4.9 percent and 3.8 percent respectively.

This book was released on 2011-04-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High school graduation and dropout rates have long been used as indicators of educational system productivity and effectiveness and of social and economic well being. While determining these rates may seem like a straightforward task, their calculation is in fact quite complicated. How does one count a student who leaves a regular high school but later completes a GED? How does one count a student who spends most of his/her high school years at one school and then transfers to another? If the student graduates, which school should receive credit? If the student drops out, which school should take responsibility? High School Dropout, Graduation, and Completion Rates addresses these issues and to examine (1) the strengths, limitations, accuracy, and utility of the available dropout and completion measures; (2) the state of the art with respect to longitudinal data systems; and (3) ways that dropout and completion rates can be used to improve policy and practice.
