This report presents an evaluation of various sponsored school-to-work transition programs, including job shadowing, mentoring, cooperative education, and other similar programs. The evaluation was conducted using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 survey (NLSY97). A total of 539 youth who participated in some type of school-to-work (STW) program were compared to 8483 youth non-participants. The two groups were compared on a number of important and relevant outcomes, including youths' part-time work, income from part-time work, job-seeking behavior, delinquency behaviors, attitudes toward parents, attitudes about school, common school problems, and positive and negative attitudes and expectations about the future. |
