VSS, Fulton Top Local Grad Rates
The Vernon School District gets a mixed grade when it comes to how many students are graduating from grade 12.
School Board Chair Robert Lee says the five secondary schools are all 90 percent or better, led by Vernon Secondary School at 96%, and Clarence Fulton at 95% in the 2017-18 school year.
Kalamalka was at 93%, Charles Bloom 91%, and W-L Seaton saw 90% of its students graduate.
“Of course we would always like to do better, but in comparison to the provincial average, we’re doing well,” Lee tells Beach Radio News.
