Graduation Increase

Being a graduate of Terry Parker's class of 2011 its a good feeling to hear that the graduation rate is on the rise. More graduating students is good it doesn't exactly mean more kids will be in college but it's good to even have a high school diploma.

Florida's federal graduation rate rose by an unprecedented 3.9 percentage points in 2012, moving to 74.5 percent of students graduating from high school within four years.
 

Within in 4 years the graduating rate has increased which is good. I think this would have a lower crime rate because kids are so focused on finishing what they have to do to get out of school. I applaud the kids for trying so hard but I also think it has alot to do with the dedication of the teachers and the parents pushing the kids to do their best and being by their child side 100%. This is a good look overall.

I think it doesn't matter how many years you are in high school as long as you walk across the stage with a High School Diploma. These high school student are making not only themselves proud put their parents and the whatever state they stay in.The good part about this report is that the most risk schools such as Andrew Jackson and Raines High school are also seeing increases in their graduation rate, this shows that the students and staff at each and every school are working as a team to get the job done and out of school.
