Abstract | Five counselors and the 513 graduates of 6 Kansas rural high schools for the period of 1981 to 1984 participated in a study designed to elicit a better understanding of counseling services in small, rural high schools and of the activities of the graduates of these schools during the first 4 years past graduation. Counselors provided the information related to themselves and the graduates. Counseling services were provided to students primarily through planned individual meetings; about one third of the time was spent on students' current academic work, and another quarter related to college plans. Females were significantly more likely than males to graduate in the top quarter of their class. In the first year following graduation 66.8% of females and 54.3% of males were in educational activities; participation in education remained higher for females over the 4 year period. Females were also less likely to stay in the hometown following graduation. Fathers' occupations affected the high school graduation rank; both parents' occupations were related to the graduates' post-high school activities. Tabular information is used throughout to display findings. An appendix provides more tables detailing the findings, the information gathering tools, and definitions. (Author/PM) |
