Rochester City School District Says its Graduation Rate is Rising

The Rochester City School District says its graduation rate is still trending higher.

Even with remote learning for much of last year, the four-year graduation rate last August was 71.4 percent.
That's more than three points better than the year before and the highest rate in more than a decade.

The dropout rate fell from 12.9 percent to 10.6 percent.

The statewide graduation rate last year rose more than a point to 86.1 percent, though it's possible the pandemic cancellations of most Regents exams made it easier for some students to graduate.
