Abstract	National research indicates that Deaf, Deaf/Blind, and Hard of Hearing students are less likely to finish high school, enroll in college, or find sustainable employment than their hearing peers. Minnesota is one of the few states that provides data to the National Deaf Center, the leading research center in Deaf, Deaf/Blind, or Hard of Hearing and Transition (age 14-21) systems. However, minimal research on Minnesota Deaf, Deaf/Blind, and Hard of Hearing students exists. To leverage comparisons across states and nationally, Minnesota commissioned an analysis of K-12, postsecondary, and employment outcomes for students from 2006-2019. Data analyzed for this report is from the Minnesota Statewide Longitudinal Education Data System, more commonly known as SLEDS. SLEDS tracks student data from prekindergarten through completion of postsecondary education and into the workforce. The study finds that Deaf, Deaf/Blind, and Hard of Hearing students in Minnesota are only slightly less likely to finish high school than their hearing peers in Minnesota. Additionally, 68% enrolled in a postsecondary institution which was less than that of all Minnesota students (81%) but higher than the national average in 2019 of 66% (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2020). The data and analysis in this study offer stakeholders and policymakers crucial information on systemic factors that affect college and career outcomes. (ERIC).
