In a budget note in HB 5016 (2015), the Oregon Legislature directed the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to report back to the Legislature prior to March 1, 2016 on its efforts to provide direction, and if necessary, training to staff from school districts and education service districts for reporting graduation data. This note also asked Department to initiate direct contact with school districts that report a graduation rate below the state average to verify the accuracy of the data before it is released publicly. This report provides details on ODE's ongoing training efforts, as well as its outreach to school districts with low graduation rates.
