On March 30, 2022, the Minnesota Department of Education released the 2021 graduation rates. We are excited to share that we have made consistent gains in many areas and that Richfield High School’s four-year graduation rate exceeds the statewide graduation (83.3%) rate by 7.4 percentage points.
Highlights
- 90.7% graduation rate for Richfield High School (up 9.8 percentage points since 2017)
- 72.3% graduation rate for the Richfield College Experience Program (up 57.3 percentage points since 2017)
The gains we have been steadily making are a direct result of the targeted, dedicated work by our teachers and support staff. We also made many systemic changes, such as increased diversity in our Advanced Placement (AP) courses and a greater variety of options for challenging coursework at the high school thanks to student voice through Reimagine Richfield and our strategic plan.
