In this Daily News report LINK it is stated that 59.8% of Hispanics make it to graduation, and 74.9% of Blacks do in the LAUSD. (2011)
Now this is probably a bit misleading if you are only addressing the children of illegal immigrants. In the schools with the highest concentration of them, I believe I've heard that less than 50% make it to graduation. Human Events offers up this report LINK that states only 40% of Hispanic students in the LAUSD graduate.
Reading this you'll note a wide desparity in these two reports, which seemingly invalidate each other. This desparity is created by different ways of determining who is a drop out and who isn't.
One method of determining who is a drop-out, is to evaluate people up to 24 years of age, who did follow through and obtain their graduation certificate. Another method looks at actual students who start high school and don't finish with the rest of their class. You see, the Left knows no bounds when it comes to spinning each and every aspect of life.

I would trust this method, before the others, but even this one has problems.
