Emanuel County Schools show an increase in the four-year graduation rate

Posted

The Georgia four-year graduation rate rose to 84.4% -- up from 84.1% in 2022 and an all-time high since the state began using the adjusted cohort calculation first required to be calculated in 2011 by federal law.

Emanuel County Schools’ four-year graduation rate rose to 84.48 – up from 81.33 in 2022. ECI’s graduation rate stayed relatively the same at 94.85, and Swainsboro High School’s graduation rate rose to 84.4 -- up from 77.98 in 2022.

Georgia is required by federal law to calculate a four-year adjusted cohort graduation rate. The rate is the number of students who graduate in four years with a regular high school diploma, divided by the number of students who form the adjusted cohort for the graduating class. Students entering the ninth grade form a cohort, and this group is adjusted by adding students who transfer into the cohort during the next three years and subtracting students who transfer to another high school during the next three years.
