Title of Collection: High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) Second Follow-up Field Test and Main Study Panel Maintenance 2015 OMB Control Number: 1850–0852 Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection. Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 5,417 Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 808 Abstract: The High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) is a nationally representative, longitudinal study of more than 20,000 9th graders in 944 schools in 2009 who are being followed through their secondary and postsecondary years. The study focuses on understanding students’ trajectories from the beginning of high school into postsecondary education or the workforce and beyond. What students decide to pursue when, why, and how are crucial questions for HSLS:09, especially, but not solely, in regards to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) courses, majors, and careers. To date, HSLS:09 measured math achievement gains in the first 3 years of high school and, like past studies, surveyed students, their parents, school administrators, school counselors, and teachers. After the initial 2009 data collection, the main study students were re-surveyed in 2012 when most were high school 11thgraders, and again in 2013 when most VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:09 Jan 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 had just graduated from high school. The second follow-up data collection will take place in early 2016, and will consist of a survey, postsecondary transcript collection, financial aid records collection, and file matching to extant data sources. The second followup focuses on postsecondary attendance patterns, field of study selection processes with particular emphasis on STEM, the postsecondary academic and social experience, education financing, employment history including instances of unemployment and underemployment, job characteristics including income and benefits, job values, family formation, and civic engagement. The HSLS:09 data elements are designed to support research that speaks to the underlying dynamics and education processes that influence student achievement, growth, and personal development over time. This request is to conduct the HSLS:09 Second Follow-up Field Test data collections (April-August 2015) and main study panel maintenance. The field test will inform the survey and data collection procedures for the 2016 main study. Dated: January 15, 2015.

    Abstract: The High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) is a 
nationally representative, longitudinal study of more than 20,000 9th 
graders in 944 schools in 2009 who are being followed through their 
secondary and postsecondary years. The study focuses on understanding 
students' trajectories from the beginning of high school into 
postsecondary education or the workforce and beyond. What students 
decide to pursue when, why, and how are crucial questions for HSLS:09, 
especially, but not solely, in regards to science, technology, 
engineering, and math (STEM) courses, majors, and careers. To date, 
HSLS:09 measured math achievement gains in the first 3 years of high 
school and, like past studies, surveyed students, their parents, school 
administrators, school counselors, and teachers. After the initial 2009 
data collection, the main study students were re-surveyed in 2012 when 
most were high school 11th-graders, and again in 2013 when most had 
just graduated from high school. The second follow-up data collection 
will take place in early 2016, and will consist of a survey, 
postsecondary transcript collection, financial aid records collection, 
and file matching to extant data sources. The second follow-up focuses 
on postsecondary attendance patterns, field of study selection 
processes with particular emphasis on STEM, the postsecondary academic 
and social experience, education financing, employment history 
including instances of unemployment and underemployment, job 
characteristics including income and benefits, job values, family 
formation, and civic engagement. The HSLS:09 data elements are designed 
to support research that speaks to the underlying dynamics and 
education processes that influence student achievement, growth, and 
personal development over time. This request is to conduct the HSLS:09 
Second Follow-up Field Test data collections (April-August 2015) and 
main study panel maintenance. The field test will inform the survey and 
data collection procedures for the 2016 main study.
