Graduation rates

Our local paper today had a story which stated that, in California, it is impossible to know the correct graduation rate in public schools. Something about not being able to track that info accurately so they give an official and unofficial estimate.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm thinking someone needs to go back to class and figure out a way to count students and follow them along to see who is graduating. By the article's estimate, it will be 4 years before the CDE is able to track that info. Interesting.
