Most students become seniors in 4 years. Some don’t. Here’s why. Historically, some students are held back in 9th grade, especially in high need districts, because they are not prepared for high school work. Therefore, they don’t become seniors in their fourth year of high school. This chart shows the percentage of 9th grade students held back each year since we began to collect data in 1995-96.
