The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) is committed to understanding student progress toward college degrees. To this end, OSSE monitors student progress to and through high school.

Using the 2011-12 school year ninth grade cohort, this report traces students’ progress toward college credentials, reviewing college enrollment, persistence and completion, as well as leading indicators such as high school persistence, graduation and Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) completion. These data offer pre-pandemic baselines that can be used to measure progress for students attending public high schools in DC.
