Follow-up Tables

- Multi-Year
Follow-up Tables
- SESRC can also produce multi-year follow-up tables

(1998-2004). To learn how to order these tables for your district, click

-
- Customized Services through SESRC
- In addition to the free statewide, district level,
and high school level GFS reports, SESRC can work with your high school or
school district to provide analyses and textual and/or graphic reports on number of
educational topics.
-
- SESRC provides affordable and timely customized
analysis of GFS data designed to meet the specific needs of a school district or
high school. The GFS’s access to
regional and national databases and its economies of scale enable us to offer
these valuable graduate tracking services at affordable prices to school
districts. SESRC staff are also experienced in graphical presentation
techniques for summarizing data for non-technical audiences.
-
- Longitudinal analysis of local graduate outcomes such
as public college enrollment rates, employment of vocational completers, and graduates taking college remedial courses can be done in more detail than
provided in the standard annual reports. College
enrollment can be monitored over time. Characteristics of graduates who enroll but do not complete college
or of those who delay entry to college for a year or more may
be examined. These types of analyses are useful in understanding the post-high
school transition for which students need to be prepared, and can be helpful for
planning local interventions directed at changing outcomes or monitoring
intervention results over time.
-
- Some types of district data can be combined with the GFS
to examine the relationship of student outcomes to WASL scores, transcript data, SAT
scores, or attendance/discipline records to provide schools with important
policy-relevant information and support for strategic planning.
