Today, the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) released the 2025 high school graduation rates from around the state. The 2025 Houston County School District’s graduation rate is 93.3%, which is 6.1% higher than the state’s rate of 87.2%. The Houston County School District saw a 2.1% increase from 2024 when the graduation rate was 91.2%.

“Our graduation rates continue to improve each year. With a renewed focus and determination to raise this rate across the District, we’re proud to have exceeded our goal once again,” said Dr. Richard Rogers, Superintendent of Schools. “The dedication and teamwork of our staff, students, teachers, and their families are truly making a difference in our students’ lives. We couldn’t be prouder of every graduate for their perseverance and commitment.”

A total of 2,181 students graduated in 2025. The four-year cohort graduation rates are listed below.

Georgia calculates a four-year adjusted cohort graduation rate as required by federal law. The calculation is based on the number of students who graduate within four years of high school and does not include students who take more than four years to graduate.
