While our county overall graduation rates remained high, there was a significant drop for students in poverty. While the drop is likely an impact of the pandemic, the underlying reasons will continue to be analyzed. Equity Goal: Reduce the disparity to less than a 4-percentage point difference. It currently stands at 14.6 points.
