Graduation rates represent the percentage of students who graduated high school with a regular diploma.
Graduation rates are calculated as prescribed by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), which provides data to the federal reporting system. In accordance with NCES requirements, the Bureau of Indian Education uses the 4-year adjusted cohort graduation rate which is defined as the number of first-time 9th grades who graduate with a regular high school diploma in 4 years.
Graduation rates do not include students who earn alternate diplomas or certificates.
