Florida’s general high school graduation rate for the 2023-24 academic year registered a higher score than ever.
There’s a new record for the percentage of Florida students who got their high school diploma. The graduation rate for the Sunshine State increased by 1.7 percentage points in the past year. The rate came in at 89.7% for 2023-24, the highest ever recorded in the state.
“Florida leads the nation in education because we put education over indoctrination, empower parents, and have made school choice universal,” said Gov. Ron DeSantis in a press release this month. “This record graduation rate is a prime metric of our success, in addition to our #1-in-the-nation rating.”
The latest graduation figures exceed the pre-pandemic graduation rate of 86.9% in the school year 2018-19. The pandemic-era school years 2019-20 and 2020-21 were exempt from the statewide standardized assessment requirements commonly applied under Florida law.
However, the latest graduation rate exceeds Florida’s 2022-23 high school graduation rate, which set the previous record.
“Florida’s graduation rate continues to climb,” said Florida Department of Education Commissioner Manny Diaz, Jr. “Florida is number one for education because of our commitment to providing a quality education that fits the needs of each student, and our climbing graduation rate is proof positive that our approach is working. Under the leadership of Gov. DeSantis, Florida will continue to lead the nation in educational success.”
Several key components and demographics in Florida schools showed notable improvements. African American students’ graduation rates improved by 2.1 percentage points over the previous year.
Hispanic students saw an annual increase in graduation rates by 2.2%.
Economically disadvantaged students saw a jump in graduation rates by 2.4 percentage points over the previous year.
Students with disabilities also fared better, increasing annual graduation rates by 1.3 percentage points.
English language students graduated at a rate of 4.6 percentage points better than the previous year.

Good Sunday (The Day of our Lord) Morn ‘Ting, America,
FIRSTLY:
Thanks to Ron & Casey Desantis for single-handly turning Florida’s Education of our Beautiful Childern around, be they Red or Yellow, Black or White, or Brown.
SECONDLY:
I, Earl Pitts “Ron&Casey’s Official “Un-official” 2028 POTUS Campaign Manager” American, would like to thank, in advance, all my Sage Patriots, Besty Leftys, Besty Independants, along with All Earl’s Bestys, in advance for your 2028 POTUS vote for Ron & Casey Desantis.
IN CLOSING:
I, Earl Pitts “Ron&Casey’s Official “Un-official” 2028 POTUS Campaign Manager” American, dont think that Ron & Casey could have selected a better Official “Un-Official” Campaign Manager from anyone else on The Planet. And if they have Official “Un-Official” Campaign Managers on Mars or Venus, I, Earl Pitts American, am by far & wide still the Bestest Selection.
If Donald or Ron & Casey dont give me The Presidental Medal of Honor, like the one Rush got, I, Earl Pitts American, will be fine with that.
FYI:
I, Earl Pitts “Ron&Casey’s Official “Un-official” 2028 POTUS Campaign Manager” American, do already have a Beautiful empty frame, over my fireplace, which would be JUST PERFECT to Proudly display the Presidental Medal of Honor, like the one Rush got.
But thats neither here nor there, I do what I do for Love of God & Country.
FYI:
I, Earl Pitts American, wear a size 44 Long Business Suit, and would like the Presidental Medal of Honor, like the one Rush got, to hang down even with my Man Nipples.
Thank you to all my Sage Patriots, Besty Leftys, Besty Independants, along wirh All Earl’s Bestys, in advance.
Earl Pitts “Ron&Casey’s Official “Un-official” 2028 POTUS Campaign Manager” American.
