The Graduation tool provides districts with the ability to track graduation information used in state reporting, AYP (Average Yearly Progress) determinations and on-target diploma information. Districts can track when a student first entered ninth grade and calculate their expected graduation date.
See the core Graduation article for additional information. State-specific fields on the Graduation tool are used only for district-tracking purposes and are NOT used in state reporting.
