Resumen
Georgia high school graduation rates at the school, district, and state level by demographic subgroup, 2012-2025. A single `graduation_rate` column (0-1 scale) carries three distinct methodologies discriminated by `rate_type`: the federal adjusted 4-year cohort rate (2012-2025), the 5-year cohort variant (2018-2024), and the Senate Bill 431 on-time rate (2021-2024, school-level only). `num_cohort` and `num_graduates` carry the published denominator/numerator where a source ships them; CCRPI accountability years add an improvement `indicator_target` and color `ccrpi_flag`. Sources span six release families (CCRPI workbooks, legacy 2012-2014 releases, standalone 4-year and 5-year cohort releases, SB 431 on-time releases, and a GOSA-portal CSV that fills the 2023 4-year count gap), merged by source precedence. This topic publishes the underlying graduation rates by methodology and demographic; the CCRPI Graduation Rate component score as it feeds the accountability index (a distinct benchmarked value, not equal to the raw 4-year rate) — alongside the overall CCRPI score and the other four component scores — lives in the `ccrpi_scoring_by_component` topic (the CCRPI overview).

Todas las columnas de la tabla de hechos. El código es el nombre exacto del campo que devuelve la API.
| Columna | Tipo | Unidad | Rango | ¿Nulo? | Descripción |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
year | integer | — | — | no | Graduation (cohort end) calendar year. For `4_year` rows, the spring the cohort was due to graduate; for `5_year` rows, the cohort's 4-year year + 1 had already passed (the rate is published one year later but keyed to the cohort year measured); for `on_time` rows, the SB 431 graduation year. Sourced from the bronze year column where one exists (CCRPI/legacy/on-time files; cross-checked against the filename) and from the filename for the standalone cohort releases. The February 2018 standalone release carries 2017-cohort data and lands in 2017.Descripción completa▾Graduation (cohort end) calendar year.

district_code | string | — | — | yes | 3-digit GOSA district code (zero-padded) for standard districts; 7-digit code for state-charter/state-school operators; the allowlisted pseudo-district code `RTC` (Residential Treatment Center aggregate, data years 2015-2018 only). NULL for state-level rows.

NULL for state-level rows. FK to the districts dimension. |
school_code | string | — | — | yes | 4-digit GOSA school code (zero-padded; later bronze years strip leading zeros). NULL for district- and state-level rows. FK to the schools dimension (composite key with district_code).Descripción completa▾4-digit GOSA school code (zero-padded; later bronze years strip leading zeros). NULL for district- and state-level rows. FK to the schools dimension (composite key with district_code). |
demographic | string | — | — | no | Student subgroup the row reports — race, gender, economic status, disability, and more; 'all' is the total.Descripción completa▾Canonical demographic code (FK to demographics dimension). 10 subgroups are reported across every era (all, asian_pacific_islander, black, hispanic, white, multiracial, native_american, economically_disadvantaged, english_learners, students_with_disabilities); 8 more (active_duty, female, male, foster_care, homeless, migrant, not_economically_disadvantaged, students_without_disabilities) appear ONLY in 2023 via the GOSA 4-year cohort CSV's wider breakdown. Race uses the combined `asian_pacific_islander` bucket — no source file publishes separate Asian or Pacific Islander rows. `American Indian/Alaskan [Native]` label drift folds to `native_american`; the GOSA CSV's `Limited English Proficient` folds to `english_learners`. 18 valores permitidos▾

rate_type | string | — | — | no | Which graduation-rate methodology the row uses: 4-year cohort, 5-year cohort, or the SB 431 on-time rate.Descripción completa▾Graduation-rate methodology: `4_year` (federal adjusted 4-year cohort rate, 2012-2025), `5_year` (5-year cohort variant, 2018-2024), or `on_time` (SB 431 statutory measure — continuous enrollment from Oct 1 of 9th grade — 2021-2024, school-level rows only). Denominator semantics differ per type (see num_cohort). 3 valores permitidos▾

graduation_rate | number | — | yes | Share of the cohort that graduated, on a 0-1 scale; which methodology applies is set by rate_type.Descripción completa▾Graduation rate on the 0-1 decimal scale (bronze ships 0-100; divided by 100). Interpretation follows rate_type. For overlapping 4-year keys the CCRPI accountability value wins by source precedence; standalone cohort releases fill years CCRPI does not cover, and ~200 small-cell 2023 keys carry the GOSA CSV rate that the CCRPI workbook suppressed. CAVEAT: the rate and the count pair can come from releases published at different cutoffs — do NOT assume num_graduates / num_cohort equals graduation_rate for `4_year` rows (it reconciles only to ~0.4pp even within one release). For `on_time` rows the identity holds to published rounding and is enforced as a quality check. | |
num_cohort | integer | — | yes | Published cohort denominator. For `4_year` rows: the federal adjusted cohort (first-time 9th graders four years prior, adjusted for transfers) from the standalone cohort releases — ALL-Students demographic only in 2015-2022/2024-2025, all 18 demographics in 2023 via the GOSA CSV. For `on_time` rows: `Total Enrolled` per SB 431 (continuous enrollment from Oct 1). Never published for `5_year` rows or the 2012-2014 legacy years.Descripción completa▾Published cohort denominator.

num_graduates | integer | — | yes | Published count of graduates (cohort numerator). Same source coverage as num_cohort. Never exceeds num_cohort (0 violations source-wide; enforced as a quality check). CAVEAT: published at a different cutoff than the CCRPI graduation_rate for 4-year rows — see graduation_rate.Descripción completa▾Published count of graduates (cohort numerator).

indicator_target | number | — | yes | CCRPI improvement target on the same 0-1 scale as graduation_rate (observed range [0.022, 0.9]). Published for 4-year and 5-year rows in 2018-2019 and 2023-2025 releases: years 2018, 2019, 2023, 2024 carry both rate types, 2022 carries 5-year only (the 2023 workbook's prior-year slice; the 2022 release itself omitted the column), 2025 carries 4-year only (its 5-year slice lands in 2024). 2020 is all NULL (COVID CCRPI suspension).

ccrpi_flag | string | — | — | yes | CCRPI performance color (green/yellow/red) for whether the school met its graduation improvement target.Descripción completa▾CCRPI performance color flag: `green` (met the improvement target), `yellow` (improved but short of target), or `red` (did not improve); bronze G/Y/R recoded per §16. The graduation indicator never awards `green_star` in any bronze year (2018-2025, verified). Same publication coverage as indicator_target. A derived performance attribute functionally determined by the rest of the row key, so it is excluded from the contract grain. 3 valores permitidos▾

Manejo de NULL
- Las celdas suprimidas (muy pocos estudiantes para reportar) son NULL, nunca cero.
- El cero es un valor real y reportado.
Limitaciones
Suppressed cells are NULL (not zero). State rows have NULL district_code and school_code. District rows have NULL school_code.
