Summary

This student survey focused on the ways students learn about and make plans for postsecondary education and employment. Individual high school students from 24 high schools in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska were surveyed. The data were collected via paper and pencil surveys administered by evaluators from MPR Associates or school staff, including counselors and teachers. The fall 1994 survey of 10th- and 12th-graders gathered information on student characteristics and on students' career and postsecondary education plans. The spring 1995 survey collected information on the previously-surveyed 12th-graders to update their plans as graduation neared. In spring 1997 the 12th-graders, who were surveyed as 10th-graders in 1994, were surveyed again. Survey topics included students' conversations with friends, parents, other relatives, teachers, guidance counselors, and other adults regarding postsecondary education and careers or occupations, goals for postsecondary education and employment, and plans for achieving those goals. Background information on respondents includes age, sex, race, parents' education, parents' employment status, and subject matter of courses taken.
