Valid test results were included for students with an enrollment in an Arizona public school on the first date of the Fall 2015 or Spring 2016 enrollment test windows. Results are counted at the school in which a student was enrolled, not where the student was administered the assessment. If the student took the same assessment in both Fall 2015 and Spring 2016 test window, only the higher of the two scores is included. If the student took a different assessment in the Fall 2015 and the Spring 2016 test windows, both scores are included. The source of the subgroup and ethnicity data is the Student Accountability Information System (SAIS), which is reported by districts and charter holders to the Arizona Department of Education.

Graduation Rate, Dropout Rate, and Enrollment Reports
Graduation Rates are calculated and published annually for both four year and five year graduation rates.
Cohort year refers to the cohort a student is assigned when they first enter an Arizona public high school. For example, if a student enters 9th grade in 2014, they would be in cohort 2018 and would be included for the "Cohort 2018 Four Year Grad Rate Data". However, if that same student needed a fifth year of high school in order to graduate, they would be included for the "Cohort 2018 Five Year Grad Rate Data". If you have questions or need additional guidance, please reach out to [email protected].
The calculation of dropout statistics is a cooperative effort of the local school districts, the Arizona Department of Education, the Arizona State Legislature, and the United States Department of Education. Presently, the emphasis on education reform mandates greater attention to performance measures, such as the dropout rate, which serves as a key indicator of a school’s success in maintaining their student population. Dropout rates are reported for grades seven through twelve, and are based on a calendar year that runs from the first day of summer recess through the last day of school. A school’s total enrollment is used as the population figure against which dropouts are subsequently counted. For purposes of this study, dropouts are defined as students who are enrolled in school at any time during the school year, but are not enrolled at the end of the school year and did not transfer, graduate, or die.
These reports include the number of students enrolled on the October 1 reporting date. The enrollment counts are available at the following levels: Statewide, County, LEA (school district), and School. These enrollment counts are further broken down for the following demographics: Gender, Ethnicity, EL, Income Eligibility 1 & 2, and Students with Disabilities.
