Relay 1-800-439-2370 David P. Driscoll Commissioner of Education October, 2003 Dear Friends: I am pleased to issue the annual publication, Plans of High School Graduates: Class of 2002. This report provides information on the post-graduation plans of Massachusetts public high school students who graduated in 2002. The data in this document, along with several other educational indicators that we report, help to inform decision-making at both local and state levels. For the Class of 2002, over 74 percent of Massachusetts high school graduates plan to continue their education at a two- or four-year college. This figure has shown steady growth from 53 percent recorded over twenty years ago. Correspondingly, 13 percent of graduates plan to work, approximately half of the percentage planning to work in 1980. The Education Reform Act of 1993, with its high standards for students and teachers, will strengthen the efforts of Massachusetts schools and districts in preparing students to successfully pursue their post graduation plans. If you have any questions or suggestions regarding this report, please contact: Massachusetts Department of Education Information Services and Technology 350 Main Street Malden, MA 02148 (781) 338-3282 Sincerely, David P. Driscoll Commissioner of Education Plans of High School Graduates: Class of 2002 Introduction The Massachusetts Department of Education collects data annually from public high schools regarding the plans of their graduates. This report summarizes the data at the state level for the Class of 2002 and includes analyses by racial/ethnic groups, gender, vocational-technical schools, and charter schools. Comparison data from past years are also provided, as well as district and individual school data. It is important to note that the data represent the intentions of high school graduates and may not reflect what students actually do after graduating from high school. Changes in Data Collection Prior to the 2001-02 school year, data about the plans of high school graduates were obtained from the Year-End School Indicator Report, a survey of Massachusetts public schools conducted by the Department of Education at the end of each school year. School officials reported the number of graduating students by gender and race across nine categories of post-graduation plans. In 2001-02, Massachusetts changed its collection system and began collecting student-level data through the Student Information Management System (SIMS). This report marks the first year that the plans of high school graduates are reported based on student-level data submitted by districts through SIMS. As a result of this new collection method, data may not fully represent actual changes in the plans of high school graduates from previous years, but rather may be representative of changes in data collection and in reporting requirements. Despite these limitations, student-level data collected through SIMS for this and the following years will ensure more accurate reporting by districts and will allow for more in-depth analysis of the plans of high school graduates in Massachusetts. Results • Class of 2002 In 2002, a total of 56,930 students graduated from Massachusetts public high schools. Of these graduates, over 74 percent planned on attending college or some other post-secondary institution (e.g. trade schools), 13 percent planned on working, and two percent intended to enter the military. One percent of the graduates reported having plans other than the ones listed above, and data was not available for the remaining nine percent of graduates (Figure 1 and Table 1). Of the graduates planning to attend college, more than twice as many planned to attend a four- year college than planned to attend a two-year college (52 versus 20 percent of all graduates). 1 2 Table 1.

  • Massachusetts Grade 7 Immunization Survey Results 2013-2014
    Massachusetts Grade 7 Immunization Survey Results 2013‐2014 The Massachusetts Department of Public Health Immunization Program is pleased to make available the 2013‐2014 Massachusetts grade 7 immunization survey results by school. Please be aware that the data are limited in a number of ways, including those listed below. Data release standards do not allow for data to be shared for schools with fewer than 30 reported students in grade 7. Schools that reported fewer than 30 students in grade 7 are indicated (†). Not all schools return their survey. Schools without data due to non‐response are indicated (*). Data were collected in the fall, but immunization data are often updated throughout the year and rates (during the same school year) may be higher than reported due to additional children receiving immunizations or bringing records to school. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave school, the immunization rates are impacted. Children are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. Children without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. Children without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b and varicella), meet school entry requirements, but may not be counted as vaccinated. All data are self‐reported by the schools and discrepancies may exist. The Immunization Program continues to work with schools to resolve discrepancies and update immunization data,
