School Districts by Highest Educational Attainment
This is the percent of adults living in a school district with a bachelor degree or higher at a rate of 65% or higher. There are a ton of districts in the 55%-64% range, but I chose 65% as the baseline.
Some observations:
2 big city districts made the cut: Seattle and DC
Many states have school districts divided by county, which makes Fairfield County all the more impressive because that is a geography with over 1 million people.
Otherwise, not too many surprises.
Also, I did High School districts and Unified districts, didn't include elementary districts.
