Wyoming Department of Education Releases 2022-23 Graduation Rates

The Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) announced that high school graduation rates remained relatively consistent, with 81.4 percent in 2022-23, a slight decrease of .4 percent from 2021-22’s 81.8 percent. Wyoming’s graduation rates have remained statistically strong – above 80 percent since 2015-16. Despite the slight decrease, 284 more students graduated last year, than the year prior.

“Not only will we continue to work toward every high school senior graduating, but that when they do they are fully prepared for the future workforce,” said State Superintendent of Public Instruction Megan Degenfelder.

Students concentrating in a Career and Technical Education (CTE) program of study had much higher graduation rates than their peers. CTE remains a top priority in Superintendent Degenfelder’s strategic plan.
