American Teen Graduation Rate Reaches Historic High
Quote:
The District of Colombia showed the greatest improvement with a seven percent increase from 61.4% to 68.5% – this is a widely celebrated fact considering the urban environment of the District.
The state with the highest graduation rate is Iowa at 90.8% followed closely by New Jersey at 89.7%, and Texas at 89%.
We still have more work to ensure all those disenfranchised by race, class or disability get just as much encouragement and support, but this is so good.
All they did was lower graduation requirements and have lax policies on grades. The US has one of the worse education systems in the developed world. So yeah we have more graduates but more people with reading levels of a 7th grader.

Drag us, but I'd rather have it the way it is here than an obsessiveness over education and the work force that countries like Japan and Korea do which probably plays part in their high suicidal rates.

Yeah, it's a joke. Primary and secondary education desperately need to be reformed.
