Description

The High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) is part of the High School Longitudinal Study (HSLS) program. HSLS:09 (http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/hsls09/) is a longitudinal survey that follows more than 21,000 9th graders in 944 schools throughout their secondary and postsecondary years. The study focuses on understanding students' trajectories from the beginning of high school into postsecondary education, the workforce, and beyond. Key statistics produced from the HSLS:09 are what students decide to pursue when, why, and how.
