Dropout Data

Published: 7/15/2024 10:36 AM

​​The dropout rate is the percent of students that drop out of school in grades seven (7) through twelve (12). 

​The dropout data is extracted from the student information system each year on November 1st. The dropout definition holds schools accountable for students for the full school year, including summer school.

2014-2015 through 2018-2019 School Year Dropout Data is available through the OpenHouse with Supplemental Data on the Assessment tab.

2019-2020 through 2022-2023 School Year Dropout Data is available through the School Report Card​ under Data Sets-Overview-Student-Dropout and Retention-Dropout.

Dropout Data is lagged one year, so 2023-2024 school year data is not available at this time.
