State report cards
How US states compare on high-school opportunity: which states' public high schools offer advanced courses, and where students go without a counselor. Pick a measure to rank the states.
How to read this. Each bar is the share of a state's public high
schools reporting the selected measure to the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights
(or, for the counselor ratio, the state median students per full-time counselor). States and territories
with fewer than 20 high schools are omitted. Data is from the 2023-24 collection,
released by ED in September 2026. In 2023-24, ED published a high school's AP or IB answer of "No" as a not-applicable code; because the survey asks every high school both questions as required Yes/No items, Truewise reads that code as "No" (except at justice facilities, where it stays unknown).
