FAIRFIELD — Dropout rates dropped over a three-year period throughout Solano County as districts worked to identify at-risk students earlier in their school careers.
News of the improvement – between 2009-10 and 2011-12 – came in the California Department of Education’s Graduate and Dropout Rates report, released last week.
The report indicates that Solano County’s dropout rates declined by 5.5 percent. Information in the report shows that school districts within the county logged substantial gains in curtailing the number of children who drop out of school.
