Los Angeles — Fewer students are graduating from Los Angeles Unified high schools and more are dropping out, according to statewide data released Tuesday.
LAUSD officials disputed the multi-year trend portrayed by the state figures, stressing that over the last three years they’ve made steady gains in retaining students.
Still, they also acknowledged that their own single-year figures for 2008-09 were actually worse than the statistics released by the state, with a lower graduation rate and a higher dropout rate.
