Graduation rates have reached a new high in Juneau. Superintendent Mark Miller told the Juneau School Board on Tuesday that last school year, the district’s high school graduation rate increased to just about 85 percent.
Miller didn’t give the board his opinion on why the rate was higher. According to school district budget documents, the graduation rate for the prior school year was 78 percent.
