Closing the Gap raising the bar Who is f a l ling through the c r a c k s?

The good news...the high school drop out rate in the United States has been on a steady decline from 14% in 1980 to 11% in 2000 to 8% in 2008. Source: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics

The not so good news... the graduation rate in the United States has started to decline for the past two years. This means that for every 10 high school students, 3 will drop out. This is 1.3 million students each year that do not graduate. Source: Education Week, June 2, 2010

Minnesota Graduation & Drop Out Information The bad news... the graduation rate for Caucasian students is 75%, however, it is only 50% for African American students. “The achievement gap in this state is one of the largest, if not the largest, in the country. That is not something anyone should take pride in.” ~ U.S. Secretary of Education A. Duncan comments on achievement gap in Minnesota.
