INDIANAPOLIS – The Class of 2024 represents the highest graduation rate on record for the State of Indiana.

According to the Indiana Department of Education, the state’s graduation rate stands at 90.23 percent for 2024, up from 88.98 percent in 2023.

That represents the highest graduation rate since Indiana began publishing data. The state’s second highest graduation rate was in 2014 at 90.06 percent.

Indiana’s graduation rate is higher than the federal graduation rate of 88.67 percent.

“Over the past year, we have celebrated a number of successes in K-12 education, and there is urgency to continue this positive momentum for Indiana students,” said Dr. Katie Jenner, Indiana Secretary of Education. “As a state, we have seen literacy rates increase for the third consecutive year, chronic absenteeism rates improve for the second year in a row, and today, the highest state graduation rate on record. Thanks to the collaboration of educators, families and communities, these represent just a few examples of the improved student outcomes we are seeing across the state. Together, we must continue to keep our foot on the gas pedal in 2025, ensuring we keep improving our education system in Indiana and increasing opportunities for students.”
