- Summary:
-
The school year 1991-92 was the first in which states reported school district level data on the numbers and types of dropouts in the Common Core of Data (CCD) Agency Universe Survey. Information included numbers of male and female dropouts in 5 racial/ethnic categories for grades 7 through 12. The CCD defined a dropout as a student who had been enrolled at any time during the previous school year and was not enrolled on October 1 of the current school year. Because it was the introductory year of such reporting, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) asked the states how successful they had been in meeting the requirements. Across the 50 states and the District of Columbia, 43 states (including the District of Columbia) reported dropout counts by school district, with the number expected to rise in 1993-94. Of the 43 reporting states, 14 followed CCD standards so well that NCES can publish their 1991-92 data. This study identified ways in which the state reports differed from CCD standards. Issues of reporting comprehensiveness are explored. Nineteen tables (including six in an appendix) and one figure present survey findings. Three appendixes contain Dropout Task Force report, dropout reporting interview questions, and technical notes. (SLD)
