Vermont Public Schools Dropout for School Year 2009-2010

Vermont Department of Education

Executive Summary

Dropout Rates The dropout section of this report presents and summarizes information on students in grades 7 through 12 who withdrew from secondary schools in Vermont during the 2009-2010 school year and the preceding summer. Data included in this report were collected as part of the Department of Educations 2010 Student Census Update. A dropout by state and federal definition is an individual student who is not enrolled in an approved educational program and who has not graduated from high school. In Vermont, a student who is absent for more than 10 consecutive school days without authorization is classified as "withdrawn". If a truant officer is unable to verify that the student has transferred to a different school or approved educational program (e.g., home school) before the end of the year, the student is considered a dropout for the purposes of this report. A summer dropout is a student who completed the previous school year, who was absent for the first 10 days of the current school year, and who did not transfer to a different educational program. Appendix A is a guide published by the National Center of Education Statistics to clarify whether a student no longer attending school is classified as a dropout. In FY10, the overall Vermont event dropout rate for grades 7 through 12 was 1.89% while the rate for grades 9 through 12th was 2.69%. Completion Rates We are reporting two separate completion rates in this report. The event completion rate represents the percentage of 12th grade students who were promoted from Vermont High Schools in the 2009-2010 school year. The statewide 08-09 event completion rate for twelfth graders is 93.2%. To calculate this rate we simply divide the number of promoted 12th graders by the adjusted enrollment of 12th graders during the same school year (see below for a definition of adjusted enrollment). We have replaced the former longitudinal completion rate with a cohort graduation rate. The cohort graduation rate is the percentage of students enrolled at a school who graduate within four years of entering ninth grade. Graduates are those earning high school diplomas. Students earning high school credentials by passing General Educational Development (GED) tests are not considered graduates for the purpose of this definition. Transfers and deceased students are not included in the denominator. The cohort graduation rate is then a measure of on-time completion, with all students expected to finish within four years. The statewide cohort rate for the class of 2010 is 87.46% Data Collection Methodology The data used to calculate the event rates included in this report were collected in the Spring Student Census Update 2010. The cohort rate calculation requires both Spring and Fall Census data between Fall of the 2006-2007 school year and the Fall of the 2010-2011 school year. These data were supplemented by information kept by schools on their school register during those same years. This report includes dropout and completion event rates from all public schools and

the four independent schools: Burr & Burton, Lyndon Institute, St. Johnsbury Academy and Thetford Academy. Graduation and dropout information from these independent schools is collected in aggregate at the end of the school year. The cohort rate is calculated only for public schools as it serves as an Annual Yearly Progress indicator under the No Child Left Behind Act and comparable information from the independent schools does not exist. The Spring Student Census Update data and the aggregate data collected from independent schools are used to calculate the adjusted enrollment that serves as the denominator for both the event dropout rate and the event completion rate. The adjusted enrollment estimates the membership of the school by counting all of the students except those who transferred to other educational programs or died during the school year. The adjusted enrollment for any particular grade or group of grades is calculated as follows. Adjusted Enrollment =
(Promoted + Receiving a GED + Not Promoted + School year dropouts + Preceding Summer Dropouts)

Dropout Rates An event dropout rate is simply the number of dropouts in a particular grade range, divided by the adjusted enrollment for that range in a single school year. For instance, the 9-12th grade dropout rate is:
Event Dropout = Rate Reported Grades 9-12 Dropout Counts Reported Grades 9-12 Adjusted Enrollment

Completion Rates Similarly, an event completion rate is the number of promoted 12th graders divided by the adjusted enrollment of 12th grade in a given school year.
Event Completion = Rate Reported 12th Grade Students Promoted Reported 12th Grade Adjusted Enrollment

The cohort rate is calculated by tracking the students from the time they enter grade nine. Students who graduate within four years are considered on-time graduates. The number of on-time graduates is divided by the total number of students in the cohort. Students who transfer into a school are included in the cohort, while students who transfer out are dropped from the cohort. For the 2010 graduation rate, all students that entered grade nine in 2006 are included in the cohort.
Cohort Graduation = Rate On-time Graduates By Year X (First-time Entering Ninth Graders in Year X-4) + (Transfers In) (Transfers Out)

Results Dropout Data Grade by Grade Comparison of Dropout Rates As in previous years, dropout rates increase with grade level. Seventh and Eighth grade dropout are 0.11% or less. This year, dropout rates in high school vary from 1.17% in the 9th grade to 3.68% in the 12th grade. Table 1: Grade-by-Grade Comparison of Dropout Rates

Dropout Trends for 2001 through 2010 As shown in Table 2 and Figure 1, the total number of dropouts and the dropout rate in grades 7 12th and grades 9 -12th had been on the decline through FY 2005. In FY 2005, the dropout rates for grades 7-12th and grades 9-12th were at the lowest in the past ten years. Since that time the dropout rates had increased slightly until they dropped again in FY 2009 and again in 2010. Table 2: Dropout Trends for 2001 through 2010

Summary No district in Vermont has more than one high school. District graduation rates are listed in the same table, with the district name immediately below the school name. The annual event dropout rate describes the proportion of students who leave school each year without completing a high school program. The event dropout rates for the school year 20092010 of 1.89% for grades 7 through 12th and 2.69% for grades 9 through 12th and are consistent with the dropout rates for the past four years. The event completion rate data for school year 2009-2010 are reported alongside with a cohort graduation rate for the class of 2010. The event completion rate represents the number of students enrolled in the senior class who graduate or complete school at the end of their senior year. The statewide event completion rate for school year 2009-2010 is 93.16%. The cohort graduation rate is the percentage of students from a given class who receive a high school diploma. The cohort graduation rate for the class of 2010 is 87.46%. It is important to distinguish the difference between the event completion rate and the cohort graduation rate. The event rate is the percentage of twelfth grade students that complete twelfth grade in a given year; it represents a measure of one year and it includes diploma recipients and students who receive certificates of completion. The cohort graduation rate follows students in a particular 9th grade class through consecutive grades through four years and is a percentage of the students who leave the cohort with a diploma.

A column has been added to Table 6 to show the percent of cohort students still enrolled at the end of the 4 year period. Disaggregate Tables Beginning with the graduating class of 2007 we have added Tables 7 11 to show the cohort graduation rates for selected sub groups. The total number of students, cohort graduation rate, and the percentage of students in the cohort still enrolled at the end of the four year period, can be seen by school for: gender, lunch status, IEP, ELL, and race. Groups with less than 11 students have been suppressed. No district in Vermont has more than one high school. District graduation rates are listed in the same tables, with the district name immediately below the school name.
