Current Stats
Hi Dr. Green. I was surprised at how difficult it was to find some of the stats. The current graduation rates were just totals so I could only find it broken down by ethnicity in a 2001 report. I also could not find the expulsions broken down by ethnicity so I did not include them. I will keep looking.
Please let me know if you want me to fix any slides or continue looking in the areas.
