The Delaware graduation rate is calculated using the following formula: (Cohort graduates) / (Cohort graduates + Cohort dropouts)

A cohort is established by the students who were in grade 9 for the first time on Sept. 30 or, if the student enrolled later, at the end of the school year, in a given school. Dropouts are counted against the school where the student dropped out. Only cohort members are counted in the number of dropouts. Graduates are always credited to the school where the student was in the ninth grade, regardless of the graduating school. The difference between the Delaware and NCLB rates is that Delaware does not consider a student who is enrolled in the Groves High School Diploma program to be a dropout, if enrolled during the fall of the year immediately following the year they dropped out. NCLB considers these students dropouts.
