Georgia high school graduation rates at the school, district, and state level by demographic subgroup, 2012-2025. A single `graduation_rate` column (0-1 scale) carries three distinct methodologies discriminated by `rate_type`: the federal adjusted 4-year cohort rate (2012-2025), the 5-year cohort variant (2017-2024, keyed to the cohort year so a year's 4-year and 5-year rows describe the same cohort), and the Senate Bill 431 on-time rate (2021-2024, school-level only). `num_cohort` and `num_graduates` carry the published denominator/numerator where a source ships them; CCRPI accountability years add an improvement `indicator_target` and color `ccrpi_flag`. Sources span six release families (CCRPI workbooks, legacy 2012-2014 releases, standalone 4-year and 5-year cohort releases, SB 431 on-time releases, and a GOSA-portal CSV that fills the 2023 4-year count gap), merged by source precedence. This topic publishes the underlying graduation rates by methodology and demographic; the CCRPI Graduation Rate component score as it feeds the accountability index (a distinct benchmarked value, not equal to the raw 4-year rate) — alongside the overall CCRPI score and the other four component scores — lives in the `ccrpi_scoring_by_component` topic (the CCRPI overview).

**Filterable categorical columns** (comma-separated values union; multiple columns AND together):
- `rate_type` — one of: `4_year`, `5_year`, `on_time`
- `ccrpi_flag` — one of: `green`, `red`, `yellow`

**Detail levels available:** districts, schools, states (default: `schools`)

**Year coverage:** 2012–2025 (14 years, no gaps)

**NULL handling:** suppressed cells are NULL (not zero); zero is a real value.

**Source:** Georgia Insights (GaDOE) / GOSA

## Query parameters

- `year_min` integer, nullable: Inclusive lower bound
- `year_max` integer, nullable: Inclusive upper bound
- `district_code` string, nullable: Comma-separated list of GOSA district codes (e.g. `601,602`)
- `school_code` string, nullable: Comma-separated list of GOSA school codes. Combine with `district_code` for unique school keys.
- `county_fips` string, nullable: Comma-separated list of 5-digit county FIPS codes (e.g. `13121,13067`)
- `tract_geoid` string, nullable: Comma-separated list of 11-digit census tract GEOIDs (e.g. `13121011100`)
- `block_group_geoid` string, nullable: Comma-separated list of 12-digit census block group GEOIDs (e.g. `131210111001`)
- `demographic` string, nullable: Comma-separated demographic codes (e.g. `all,black,hispanic`)
- `detail` string, nullable: Detail level (whatever the topic publishes — e.g. schools, districts, counties, or states).
- `limit` integer, nullable: Page size
- `offset` integer: Page offset
- `columns` string, nullable: Comma-separated output columns to return (fact columns plus joined dimension attributes). Defaults to all.
- `format` 'json' | 'csv' | 'parquet': Response format: json | csv | parquet

## Response `200`

Paginated rows. JSON returns an envelope with `data` and `pagination`; CSV/Parquet return raw bytes with `X-Total-Count` header.

- unknown

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error
