This article is intended for administrators of K-8 schools seeking clarification on reporting requirements for graduation rates and testing data under the Georgia Promise Scholarship.
Graduation rates are only required for high schools, so K-8 schools are not obligated to report graduation data. The Georgia Promise Scholarship does not set curriculum requirements for approved private schools, but K-8 institutions must still administer standardized tests and report the results as part of the scholarship’s accountability measures. While graduation rates do not apply to K-8 schools, testing data remains an important part of their reporting responsibilities.
