CHS's dropout rate down

I hope it's more than a statistical artifact, but if it's real, it's encouraging: Capital's dropout rate, as reported by the OSPI, has fallen from 5.5% in 2002-2003 to 1.9% in 2004-2005, [pdf, scroll down to Olympia] the last year for which data are available.

In 2002-2003, we had 86 dropouts. Last year we had 27, including 9 who went to get their GED.

Indeed, you have mastered the post hoc fallacy. I am so proud.

"After this, therefore because of this." Protracted sigh.
