News » School leaders attend graduation summit
Mar. 3, 2010
School leaders from across Wisconsin gathered in southern Wisconsin yesterday to talk about ways to increase high school graduation rates.
Appleton superintendent Lee Allinger says officials talked about different ways to reach students who fall through the cracks. He says some of those ideas included creating new charter schools and developing new alternate diploma programs.
Allinger says Appleton already graduates about 94 percent of their students on time, but there is room for improvement.
He says graduating on time is only part of the goal. Allinger says graduates also have to be prepared for college or the working world.
Allinger says Wisconsin schools graduate about 90 percent of their students on time. He says that leads the nation. |
