Districts vary widely in college-going rates of recent high school graduates

District-level college-going rates among socio-economically disadvantaged (SED) and non-socio-economically disadvantaged students

Source: PPIC based on CDE data for 2021 and 2022 high school graduates.
NOTES: Each bubble represents a K–12 or high school district. The size of the bubble is proportional to the number of high school students that are considered socioeconomically disadvantaged. Restricted to districts with at least 100 high school graduates. CDE defines “socioeconomically disadvantaged” students based on meeting one of eight criteria, including eligibility for free or reduced-price lunch or having parents that have not graduated from high school.
