1. Kansas Leads the World in the Success of Each Student.
Postsecondary Success: Summer Impact Institutes 2017

2. Kansas leads the world in the success of each student..
A NEW Vision for Kansas….
Kansas leads the world in the success of each student..
Based on the feedback received across the state, the board has adopted as its new vision for education “Kansas leads the world in the success of each student.”
We intend to challenge the status quo, move away from placing emphasis on a single test score and focus more on helping each student identify and achieve their career aspirations.
Teachers, administrators and support staff already are doing great work preparing Kansas’ students for success, and this new vision stands to unite our efforts across the state. You will hear us say we need to rethink how our schools are asked to operate. From a state perspective, we will look at every requirement to determine if and how we are supporting or impeding our schools’ abilities to address the needs of each child.

3. Isn’t this what we aspire to be…

4. What is success? Happy Fulfilled
To give back to the community and be in the service of others
Skills and attributes that allow one to earn a living in the middle class or beyond

8. Postsecondary Needs in Kansas
Kansas needs 71% of workers to have a postsecondary certificate or degree. Approximately 36% need to be bachelor degrees or higher Approximately 35% need to have a certificate or associate degree
Data from the national study conducted by the Georgetown Policy Institute predicts that, by they year 2020, 71% of the jobs in Kansas will require some form of education after high school. Approximately half of those being a 4-year college degree, and the other half consisting of a 2-year associates degree or certification. The state board of education uses the term “postsecondary” instead of “college,” because not every job requires a college degree. Along with input from the statewide community conversation tour, this data helped inform the state board of education to place a greater focus on postsecondary data.

9. Postsecondary Success Data
National Student Clearing House Data
High School Graduates that enroll in postsecondary institutions.
4-year and 2-year postsecondary institutions, in-state and out-of-state.
Does NOT include military, or students that directly enter the workforce.
The KSDE, on behalf of school districts, purchases the National Student Clearing house data annually and sends it to school districts so they can see how successful their graduates are, after high school, in a postsecondary environment.

10. Postsecondary Success
National Student Clearing House Data
Going back to the Graduating Class of 2010
Will follow the students for 6 years
Will keep track of students even when they change institutions
Is the most comprehensive data available

11. However, this is the percent of students who GRADUATED from high school that went on to pursue post secondary schooling. To get the effective post secondary rate, we must subtract out those students who did not graduate from high school.
Percent of students who graduated from high school in the Class of 2010:
80.9%
Students who graduated, went to post secondary school and returned or graduated in year two:
55.1%
Thus the effective post secondary rate is:
44.6%
Remember…Kansas needs to have at least 70-75% of high school graduates to obtain post secondary credentials to fill the available jobs in our state
The green area represents the percent of the graduating Class of 2010 in Kansas who went on to pursue post secondary education.
Percent of students who started one year earlier in post secondary education and returned somewhere for a second year
Percent of students who started one year earlier in post secondary education and have graduated (most likely a certificate or associate degree)
Let’s focus on six years after high school graduation for the Class of 2010
Added together, 55.1% of students who started their post secondary career either graduated or came back in the second year.

13. Starting with a class of 100 HS Freshmen
In Kansas, ON AVERAGE…
86 will graduate HS
56 will enroll in a 2-yr or 4-yr postsecondary institution
46 will complete 1 year of college and return the 2nd year, or have completed their certificate or degree
32 will complete a postsecondary degree or credential in 6 years
With 71% of all jobs in Kansas requiring some college or above, what are the 68 students not completing a credential 6 years after HS going to do????
This is why career education/exploration is so important for K-12, it’s the only way to close this large gap

What do we know about the students in Yellow?
What courses did they take in high school?
What was the rigor of those courses?
Were they involved in extra-curricular activities?

What other questions might be important?
