Gov. Whitmer Statement on Michigan’s Graduation Rate Nearing All-Time High

Press Release

“Michigan’s graduation rate increased for the second year in a row and is approaching an all-time high. These numbers reflect the work we’ve been doing to make sure every child gets a quality education that sets them up for future success. Last year, we increased mental health and after-school counseling, expanded tutoring programs to get kids back on track, and delivered free breakfast and lunch to every public school student in Michigan. We are going to build on this momentum, which is why we proposed the Michigan Guarantee in this year’s budget, so every Michigander is guaranteed a tuition-free path from pre-k through community college. Let’s get it done.”
