I went to school in pound and clintwood. To me it seemed like pound was a more challenging school.

Was hoping it was a lot higher, I don't like that. IMO in today's age, it's sad that these numbers aren't higher, that there are still that many who are ignorant of how important education is. Disappointing.

To be fair it is the "On Time Graduation Rate" which if I understand it correctly means after entering 9th grade you are out in 4 years.....The same Report also has Dropout rates

Appy -11.5
PV - 10.9
StPaul - 13.6
Coeburn - 9
Pound - 4.7
Kelly - 6.3

Burton - 9.7

Clintwood - 5.8
Haysi - 4.5
Ervinton - 26 (Holly Crap)

What they are winning at is a heckuva lot more important that any athletic event no doubt. Academics>athletics. I'm shocked to see St.Paul there with the smart students they pull from neighboring communities (kills us all in PACE).

Well with there 13%+ drop out rait it looks like they just run off the ones that can't cut it.

I still can not belive that Ervinton has a 26% dropout rate (1 in 4 WOW)
