When you first look at Nebraskaâs high school graduation rates, the numbers seem commendable.
Nearly 89% of Nebraska students graduated from high school within four years of starting ninth grade, according to 2018 statistics from the U.S. Department of Education. That was better than the national average of just over 85% and good for 12th in the nation.
But then look at the racial and ethnic breakdown. White students in Nebraska graduated at a 92.5% rate. Hispanic students: about 81%. Black students: 78%. Native American students: 71%.
The disparity between the rate for White students and that of the racial or ethnic group with the lowest rate â in Nebraskaâs case, Native American students â puts Nebraska at 46th in the nation, according to the 2020 edition of Americaâs Health Rankings, which are compiled by the United Healthcare Foundation.

There’s a lot of false information out there about the two leading COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S. We wanted to provide the facts and answer some questions.
I’m not a doctor but know a few, so we asked. Why is this happening so fast?
“This technology has kind of been around and been tested for a while. It s the first time that we ve actually seen it on a larger scale to create vaccines. But various companies, Moderna and Pfizer, have been experimenting with this for a while, explained Dr. Khalilah Gates, a pulmonary care specialist with Northwestern Medicine.
