According to US News,
the high school graduation rate is up

78 percent. In another US News article,
graduation rates may be slightly skewed due
to the reporting of special education student
graduation rates.*

Preaching to the choir
• Some graduating students attend four year
programs and others attend two year
programs and/or state or career technical
schools.
• You know your students’ skills, academic level,
and their abilities. You know your challenges
