2011 MCPS Grads and Montgomery College Enrollment

From Montgomery College Fall 2011 Enrollment Profile for Credit Students
Source of Recent High School Graduates
There was an increase in the number of recent high school graduates enrolled this fall-265 more than last fall. Each category of recent high school graduates increased (MCPS, GED, International, private schools, out-of-county, out-of-state, and home-schooled).
Montgomery County Public School Graduates
This fall, one-in-four (26.2%) of last spring’s MCPS graduates enrolled at the College (that is, 2,677 of 10,233 graduates). This percentage is up slightly from last year’s 25.0% share of the 2010 MCPS graduates.
Northwest (n=166), Gaithersburg (n=159), Clarksburg (n=145), Montgomery Blair (n=134), and Watkins Mill (n=130) were the high schools that sent the largest number of their Class of 2011 graduates to the College. As a proportion of the individual high schools’ graduating classes that attended the College in the fall 2011 semester, Seneca Valley led with 39.6%, followed by Wheaton and Gaithersburg (38.6%), Rockville (36.6%), Kennedy (36.5%), Watkins Mill (36.2%), and Einstein (34.3%). Only five of the twenty-five MCPS high schools sent fewer than one-in-five (20%) of their 2011 graduates to the College in the fall semester.
The College’s draw rate from recent graduates of the Upper Region high schools (31.8% of graduates) was significantly greater than the draw rate from the Lower Region (24.2%) and the Middle Region (23.8%) high schools.
