Wake County High School Students Outperform Neighbors Print E-mail

Way to go Wake County grads!

A recent study determined that high school graduates from Wake County outperform their peers (from other urban school districts in North Carolina) in college.

 The 5-year graduation rate for Wake high school graduates at UNC is 63.9%, significantly higher than the average 5-year graduation rate at UNC: 54.8%.

 That's good news for parents of Wake County students! That means more students are graduating in a timely manner.  The quicker you graduate, the less money you spend on college expenses!
