Graduation Rates Rates are based on cohorts of students who enter in 9th grade and graduate four years later with adjustments made for new students. There was a drop following COVID, and rates have grown since.
Advanced Placement MIHS does not require students to take the AP test for every AP class they take, so even more students are accessing AP classes than these numbers indicate.
