Peter Shumlinrsities as Drivers of Innovation, Workforce and Economic Development." NEBHE Program Coordinator (and videographer) Erica Pritchard and NEJHE Executive Editor John O.

Trends & Indicators: High School Success 

Fully 78% of New England 9th-graders graduate from high school in the "normal" four years time, compared with 70% nationally. But nearly a dozen foreign countries outperform the U.S. in the percentage of 25- to 34-year-olds with a high school credential, according to new data posted to the High School Success section of NEBHE's Trends & Indicators.
