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 who will be followed through their secondary and postsecondary years. The main study students were re-surveyed in 2012 when most were high school 11th graders. 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. This study includes a new student assessment in algebraic skills, reasoning, and problem solving and, like past studies, will survey students, their parents, school administrators, school counselors, and teachers. Students will be administered a questionnaire and an assessment instrument. This submission will ask for the clearance for the update of HSLS:2009 high school students who were in 9th grade in the base year (June 2013-October 2013), collection of their high school transcripts (September 2013 January 2014), and 2nd follow-up sample panel maintenance.
