Virginia Cohort Reports
Class of 2008 (Five-Year Rates for 2004-2005 First-Time 9th-Grade Cohort)
Terminology.

Five-year cohort reports reflect the number of students who graduated with a Board of Education-approved diploma within five years of entering the ninth grade for the first time. Five-year cohort reports 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. Percentages are based on longitudinal student-level data and account for student mobility and retention and promotion patterns.
