Grades, course failure and credits by district

Students in grades 9 to 12 who dropped out during the year (stand-in). 2025 compared with 2024. Fair ●●○

Select a column heading to sort. Blank means the publisher did not report that area; "suppressed" means the publisher withheld a small number; "not shown" means this site withheld it (fewer than 30 survey respondents).

The county column comes from the district-to-county table, for reading county measures alongside district ones. State charter schools and other statewide units have no single county.
