Oregon Department of Education Our Why Equity and Excellence for Every Learner The Oregon Department of Education works in partnership with school districts, education service districts and community partners; Together, we serve over 580,000 K-12 students; We believe every student should have access to a high-quality, well- rounded learning experience; We work to achieve the Governor s vision that every student in Oregon graduates with a plan for their future.

Oregon Department of Education Education Equity Stance Education equity is the equitable implementation of policy, practices, procedures, and legislation that translates into resource allocation, education rigor, and opportunities for historically and currently marginalized youth, students, and families including civil rights protected classes. This means the restructuring and dismantling of systems and institutions that create the dichotomy of beneficiaries and the oppressed and marginalized.

New This Year Cohort and NCES Dropout Media files will be suppressed to protect student confidentiality.

2018-19 Graduation Highlights Opportunity gaps in Oregon are continuing to close. Graduation rate increases occurred in every student group, and every historically underserved student group saw increases larger than the state average. The overall 80.0 percent graduation rate is the state s highest ever rate, and is 1.3 percentage points higher than last year and 8.0 points higher than five years ago. The increase in the graduation rate represents nearly 600 additional students receiving a diploma. Student Success Act funding will build on this promising foundation to foster equity and excellence for all Oregon students.

Dropouts vs. Non-completers The dropout rate includes all dropouts in a given year, irrespective of how long they have been enrolled in high school and whether they have dropped out previously. The non-completer count includes students in the adjusted cohort who did not earn a credential or continue their enrollment, including students who left for medical reasons or earned vocational certificates. There is some overlap between the groups, but they are not comparable. Oregon does not have a cohort dropout rate.
