[Lisa Kingsley]: In just one year, Medford's graduation rate dropped four points, from 90.8 to 86.2%. Now, that change might seem small, but it represents dozens of students not crossing the stage. For our high-need students, those battling language, income, learning challenges, the drop is even deeper. Those are the students who most need our attention. Data tells us who's falling through the cracks. We can't help students we don't see.
