CCR Data and Transparency Quiz

Just ten states – Massachusetts, Ohio, Oregon, Washington, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Louisiana, Nevada, and Florida – report data about whether students are on track to graduate. See how all states stack up here. 

Minnesota and Massachusetts earned top marks in Achieve’s transparency reports for breaking their data down by student subgroups, earning scores of 7.25 and 7 out of 8 possible points, respectively. See how all states did here.
 

The average score was just above a 50% - 16.5 out of 32 possible points. See the full set of transparency reports here.

If a state has made data available from the two most recent graduating cohort years (2014-15 and 2015-16), they earned points for this category. Any data older than two years did not earn points for timeliness. Postsecondary indicators have a longer lag time in reporting and a different definition of timeliness. For the full details on this and other point-awarding criteria, see the transparency report methodology.

Nope. Oklahoma is the only state that doesn’t publicly report their four-year graduation rate.

Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, North Carolina, and Tennessee all report college- and career-ready assessment results, but they don’t break the results down by student subgroups. See which states report data by subgroups here.

Eight states – Arizona, the District of Columbia, Louisiana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Vermont – don’t report any data on college remediation. See Achieve’s full set of transparency reports here.

That’s right. For the full details on this and other criteria Achieve used to award points in the transparency reports, please see the transparency report methodology.
