For this analysis, ORE used Classification and Regression Tree (CART) modeling to divide these On-Track students into four subgroups based on their 9th-grade GPA and attendance. We found that a small group of on-track students (about 1 in 25) showed signs that they were likely to fall off track in later grades: these 9th-graders had relatively poor grades and attendance, and they had a four-year graduation rate of 47%.<\/p>\n<p>Use the button below to download the 10-page brief.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_btn title=&#8221;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE REPORT&#8221; style=&#8221;gradient-custom&#8221; gradient_custom_color_1=&#8221;#0b315b&#8221; gradient_custom_color_2=&#8221;#398635&#8243; align=&#8221;center&#8221; button_block=&#8221;true&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.philasd.org%2Fresearch%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F90%2F2019%2F07%2FOn-Track-but-Vulnerable-Issue-Brief-July-2019.pdf|||&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A retrospective analysis of the academic trajectories of SDP 9th-graders who were on track to graduate in 2014-15.
