III. Our School Division:  A Macro Level of Accomplishments
Graduation rates tell the collective story of our kids’ journey through our schools.  

It reflects the collaborative effort that needs to occur K‐12 
for a student to reach such an important milestone.

94.1% Graduation Rate
 Exceeds state rate of 91.5%
 89.6% ‐ Black students
 88.2% ‐ Hispanic students
 91.5%  ‐ Students with disabilities

Our goal is to ensure that EVERY student, no matter their disability, 
race, gender, or socio‐economic condition, receives what they need in 
order to be successful.
