FY23 Federal High School Graduation Rates. Executive Summary
School District of Palm Beach County
On January 22, 2023, the Florida Department of Education (FDOE) released high school graduation rates for the State of Florida and the District. The FY23 Federal High School Graduation Rate includes standard diplomas but excludes special diplomas and General Education Diplomas (GEDs). Students with Disabilities (SWD) on Access Points curriculum are working to earn a standard diploma and are included as graduates, if successful.1 It should be noted that due to COVID-19, assessment requirements for graduation were waived for FY20 and FY21 seniors (Emergency Order No. 2021-E0-02) who had yet to meet them. This fact should be kept in mind when examining longitudinal trends. In FY23, the District's overall graduation rate was 90.5%. In addition, the District's overall graduation rate exceeded Florida and the six other large urban school districts; however, Miami-Dade was second at 90.3%. When compared to FY22 and FY19 (the last year prior to COVID), graduation rates increased overall and for each subgroup. The tables presented in this report provide five-year (FY19-FY23) historical summaries. Table 1 reports the graduation rates for Florida, the District, and six other large urban school districts. Table 2 shows the graduation rates for Black,Hispanic, White, ELL, FRL, and SWD students. Table 3 reports the graduation rates for District-operated and Charter schools. Tables 4 to 6 report graduation rates for District-operated high schools, Charter high schools, and Alternative high schools, respectively. [For the FY22 report, see ED627243.]
