        good, but still too low. My school has a graduation rate of around 93%. The national average should climb to 90%, especially D.C.

        When you lower the standards by 50%, you can have a high graduation rate. Let's celebrate those who excel... not the bottom. @ABC

        If they're in Chicago, that's lucky if they make it old enough to even graduate.
