Go to school's statistics page and find out how many seniors are repeating their senior year, even though they have earned enough credits to get a diploma. 
These stats are cooked. Oregon schools have had a program in place where they have been paying for community college for years, of students who agree not to actually collect a diploma in exchange for splitting the federal and state tax dollars for their repeating their senior year. They don't actually of course; it's just a game to get more tax dollars from us. The taxpayers are kept in the dark and schools have another entitlement program. Anyone upset? Any register guard articles on that?
Perhaps there has been, but I sure haven't seen any.
