At Monday morning's school board meeting in Pawhuska, Superintendent David Cash talked about the 2019 graduation rate and compared that with the dropout rate in the high school. For the 2019-2020 school year, 190 students roamed the high school hallways and three students dropped out. Cash said when comparing that to other schools across the area, that is a good number.

To track the graduation rate, Cash looks back to the freshman class of 2017 to see how many of them completed their course work as Huskies a year ago.

Cash says the school is likely to see a better graduation rate in the coming years because there are fewer people dropping out.
