Back in 2006, researchers found that just 8 of every 100 CPS high school freshmen would get a college degree. The numbers were worse for black and Hispanic boys: 4 percent. New research shows that more CPS students are getting degrees, but the results are unequal across race and gender. The difference is most stark when comparing the outcomes of boys of color: While the rate of degree attainment remains in the single digits for black boys, at 6 percent, the rate nearly tripled among Hispanic boys to 11 percent. https://catalyst-chicago.org/notebook/2014/12/09/66239/more-cps-grads-are-getting-college-diplomas-though-racial-gaps-persist
