Most Georgia districts graduated at least 90% of students

Most Georgia school districts graduated at least 90% of their students, making the statewide graduation result the central development in the latest school results.

The figure means that more than half of Georgia’s school districts reached a graduation rate of nine students out of every 10 or higher. It describes district-level results across Georgia rather than the outcome for one individual school.

The result gives families and communities a broad measure of how many students completed high school in the districts that reached that threshold. Districts below 90% are not identified here, and the result does not establish how individual districts compared with one another.

The graduation-rate finding concerns schools and districts, not an election or a candidate. Further attention will center on the district-level figures and the records used to calculate them.
