Grade 9 Credit Attainment

Grade 9 is a pivotal year in a student’s academic journey, as it marks the first time they must earn credits toward their high school diploma. Success during this year plays a crucial role in determining future academic achievement, setting the foundation for completing high school.

Grade 9 marks the first year in Manitoba schools where students must pass core courses to work toward their high school diploma. This transition year can be challenging, often leading to declines in academic achievement and increased absences due to various social factors. Research indicates that success in Grade 9 credit attainment is a key predictor of whether a student will successfully complete high school.

The data presented include a cohort of first-time Grade 9 students in public schools, First Nations schools administered by school divisions and funded independent schools.
