Cohort graduation rates are a calculation of the percentage of students who have graduated with a regular high school diploma within a designated number of years since the student first entered high school. The rate is determined for a cohort of students who have all entered high school for the first time during the same school year.
This tool allows users to explore 4‑year and 5‑year cohort graduation rates and understand how schools and districts compare when factors such as community demographics and legislative context are taken into account.
