Composite Graduation Rate - New for 2022 - Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate

Q: How is the weighted composite graduation rate calculated?

It uses (4 Year × 0.6) + (5 Year × 0.3) + (6 Year × 0.1) to weight 4-year, 5-year, and 6-year graduation rates.

Q: What score results when the weighted composite graduation rate is at least 93?

A weighted composite graduation rate ≥ 93 converts to 100 points.

Q: What is the point outcome when the weighted composite graduation rate is 66.667 or lower?

A weighted composite graduation rate ≤ 66.667 converts to 0 points, and scores are capped at 100.

Composite Graduation Rate defines the Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate used for reporting. It introduces a weighted calculation based on 4-year, 5-year, and 6-year graduation rates: (4 Year x 0.6) + (5 Year x 0.3) + (6 Year x 0.1). A new scoring formula converts the composite rate into points, where weighted composites >=93 yield 100 points, and composites <=66.667 yield 0 points, with scores capped at 100. Examples for Hawk High and Florence High illustrate old vs new scoring across student groups.
