Virginia Cohort Reports
Class of 2009 (Four-Year Rates for 2005-2006 First-Time 9th-Grade Cohort)
Terminology.

The Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) publishes annual state-level, division-level and school-level cohort reports that detail outcomes for students who entered the ninth-grade for the first time together and were scheduled to graduate four years later.

Cohort reports include the Virginia On-Time Graduation Rate for the commonwealth, school divisions and high schools and also include data on dropouts, students still in school, students on long-term leave and students in the cohort whose records were properly reported to the state but whose status is unconfirmed.

The Virginia On-Time Graduation Rate expresses the percentage of students in a cohort who earned a Board of Education-approved diploma within four years of entering high school for the first time. Percentages are based on longitudinal student-level data and account for student mobility and retention and promotion patterns.
