Governor's Office of Student Achievement (GOSA) annual English Learner (EL) program exit activity. For every Georgia LEA — standard county/city districts, state and commission charter schools, State Schools, and state-agency systems — plus a single statewide aggregate row, reports the number of EL students who exited EL services, the total EL enrollment used as the denominator, and the resulting exit rate per fiscal year. Coverage is fiscal years 2019-2024 (FY2024 = the 2023-24 school year) at the district and state detail levels; no school-level detail is published. District cells below the privacy threshold are suppressed in bronze as TFS and are NULL in gold; state totals are never suppressed. This topic is the merged successor to three legacy GOSA source topics (english_learners_el_exit_rate_district_level, _state_level, and _3yr_for_report_card) that published the same metric set; the report-card edition duplicated the district/state values exactly and was dropped during the merge.

**Filterable categorical columns:** none

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

**Year coverage:** 2019–2024 (6 years, no gaps)

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

**Source:** GOSA
