Great article in today's Commercial Dispatch about the improvement in graduation rates in CMSD. It's never good enough until it's 100%, but seeing progress is excellent.

2008 Graduation Rates released by MDE
The 2008 graduation rates have been "officially" released this week by MDE. You can read the press release at MDE's site. At the end of the press release is a link to the 4-page report of all the districts.
CMSD's 4-year cohort rate is 79% for 2008. We are better than any of the surrounding districts. I went through the list and found just 25 districts with rates 80% and above. So, while 79% is not good enough, it is in within the range of the top 25-30 districts in the state. We can be proud of 79% and work toward being one of only a handful better than 85%.
