— Not available. ‡ Reporting standards not met. (Too few cases for a reliable estimate.) NOTE: The averaged freshman graduation rate (AFGR) is an estimate of the percentage of an entering freshman class graduating in 4 years. For 2005–06, it equals the total number of diploma recipients in 2005–06 divided by the average membership of the 8th-grade class in 2001–02, the 9th-grade class in 2002–03, and the 10th-grade class in 2003–04. See table 12 in this report for more information about these state rates. SOURCE: Stillwell, R., and Hoffman, L. (2009).
