High School Graduation Profile

In 2013, Texas passed HB5, which established the Foundation High School Program, replacing the prior requirements. Since passage of HB5, on-time high school graduation rates have increased universally across the state, rarely falling below 90%. Even with these changes, students have unequal access to supports and resources that impact their likelihood of high school graduation, leading to disparities in graduation rates by gender, household income, and race. Factors like chronic absence and high mobility impact graduation rates, even when students experience them in middle and early high school.

About this data:

E3 Alliance relies primarily on data from the University of Texas Education Research Center (ERC). This data allows for a year-by-year understanding of high school graduation based on where a student attends school. This data pertains to high school students who were enrolled within the state of Texas for any grades 9-12, excluding students who left the Texas public education system for reasons other than dropping out.

Following are items to note:

The year of the data represents the year of high school graduation. Intra-year moves reflect whether a student moved to a different school during a given school year. There is a delay in data availability due to state approval within the ERC and analysis time. As such, if you choose to explore data from Central Texas, the graphs below present high school graduation data in the most recent available year in Texas schools.

The conclusions of this research do not necessarily reflect the opinions or official position of the Texas Education Agency, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, or the State of Texas.
