At the end of the 2016-17 school-year, YES students were given a survey that asked them about their immediate future plans. We had 236 respondents from 10 different school districts. Students were asked to indicate their future plans and check all that apply to them under the following categories: College, Workforce, Military, Certification/Technical Degree, Associate Degree, and Bachelor’s Degree or higher. Below are the results:
- College: 89% of all students plan to attend college. (8% increase from last year)
- Workforce: 14% of all students plan to enter into the workforce. (9% decrease from last year)
