District news
156 Trenton seniors were denied graduation in 2024-25

What happened
A graduation report presented to the board on April 27, 2026 records 156 students in the district's twelfth-grade class denied graduation in 2024-25. The presentation was given the same night the board adopted its 2026-27 budget and approved a bullying self-assessment that scored Trenton Central High School at 27 out of a possible 78, the lowest score in the district. The minutes record no resolution responding to the graduation figure.
Why it matters to families
A hundred and fifty-six families learned their child would not graduate on time. The figure was presented to the board as information, with no plan attached in the same record, so a parent asking what changes next year would not find the answer here.
The evidence
The presentation states: 'The total number of students denied graduation from the 12th grade class Total in district: 156'.
