  • Follow-Up Study of 1996 Graduates. INSTITUTION Saginaw Public Schools, MI
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 412 488 CG 028 151 AUTHOR Claus, Richard N.; Quimper, Barry E. TITLE Follow-Up Study of 1996 Graduates. INSTITUTION Saginaw Public Schools, MI. Dept. of Evaluation Services. PUB DATE 1997-09-00 NOTE 35p. PUB TYPE Reports - Research (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adolescents; College Preparation; *Followup Studies; *High School Graduates; High Schools; Higher Education; *Outcomes of Education; *School Effectiveness; *Telephone Surveys; Vocational Interests; Young Adults IDENTIFIERS *Saginaw City School System MI ABSTRACT In June 1996, 348 students received diplomas from two high schools in Saginaw, Michigan. To determine these graduates' activities nine months after graduation, 188 of them were telephoned and asked about post-secondary education, employment status, and perception/evaluation of their high school education. The results of that survey are reported here. Survey findings will provide school board members, administrators, teachers, and counselors with data to assist them in instructional and curricular planning. Results indicate that 70.3% of the graduates were in college, school, training, or apprentice programs. For those attending school, the five top study areas were general courses/undecided, education and social services, business, medicine and health services, and engineering/architecture. Nearly half (46.3%) of the graduates attending school felt that their high school education was "very often" or "often" used in their current studies. Regarding employment, 81.5% of those surveyed were working for pay and none were full-time homemakers. Most graduates worked 32.1 hours per week. The two most frequently mentioned "suggested improvements" to the high school program were: "students need to be better prepared for college" and "more in-class computer usage."
