Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes patterns of continuity and change among spring 2004 high school seniors from the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 (ELS:2002) first follow-up study, spring 1992 seniors from the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88) second follow-up study, spring 1980 seniors from the High School and Beyond (HS&B) base-year study, and spring 1972 seniors from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972 (NLS:72) base-year study. It supplies demographic profiles of 1972, 1980, 1992, and 2004 seniors and discusses their senior-year coursetaking and extracurricular activities, life values, educational expectations, and post-high school education and career plans. Chapter 1 describes changes in the racial/ethnic makeup of high school seniors from 1982 to 2004. Chapter 2 examines the courses taken by seniors during their senior year (in contrast to courses accumulated throughout their high school program, as examined in, for example, Bozick and Ingels 2008 and Dalton et al. 2007). During this last year of high school, seniors took higher-level courses in mathematics, science, and foreign language in greater proportions in 2004 than in 1982 (the first year for which coursetaking data are available). Seniors participated in a variety of extracurricular activities. The ones examined in chapter 3 are student government, honor society, athletics, newspaper or yearbook, vocational club, and academic club. There was both some overall change and a good deal of stability in the patterns of participation among seniors. Chapter 4 examines plans for work and school immediately after high school, as well as the importance of certain factors in choosing a postsecondary education institution. Plans for highest educational level and occupational attainment at age 30 are examined in chapter 5. Two appendixes include: Technical Notes and Glossary; and (2) Standard Error Tables. (Contains 38 tables, 4 figures, and 21 footnotes.) [This report updates an earlier NCES publication, "Trends among High School Seniors, 1972-1992" (ED387533).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We often hear about the growing divide between rich and poor in America. This compelling exposé, backed by up-to-date research, locates the source of this trend where we might least expect to find it—in our schools. Written for a wide audience, Tearing Down the Gates is a powerful indictment of American education that shows how schools, colleges, and universities exacerbate inequality by providing ample opportunities for advantaged students while shutting the gates on the poor—and even the middle class. Peter Sacks tells the stories of young people and families as they struggle to negotiate the educational system. He introduces students like Ashlea, who grew up in a trailer park and who would like to attend college, though she faces constant obstacles that many of her more privileged classmates can't imagine. Woven throughout with voices of Americans both rich and poor, Tearing Down the Gates describes a disturbing situation that has the potential to undermine the American dream, not just for some, but for all of us. At the heart of this book is a question of justice, and Sacks demands that we take a hard look at what equal opportunity really means in the United States today.
