The Design Team discussed the following measure and measurement approaches for secondary enrollment in postsecondary education.
Measure: Percentage of accountably enrolled high school graduates who enroll in postsecondary education in the following year.
Numerator: Students who completed at least 50 percent of a state-approved career preparation program by the end of the reporting year, received a high school diploma or equivalent in the reporting year, and enrolled in any postsecondary institution in the U.S. in the second quarter following the end of the reporting year during which the student graduated.
Denominator: Students who completed at least 50 percent of a state-approved career preparation program by the end of the reporting year and received a high school diploma or equivalent in the reporting year.

Rate of Secondary Enrollment in Postsecondary Education

From Massachusetts:
• Will we only be measuring students who transitioned from a high school CTE program to a postsecondary CTE program? This would ensure Perkins funding would follow Perkins students throughout their CTE careers and not be used to support students who earlier had made no commitment to CTE. Are we using a cohort model (following students from high school to college in a CTE concentration) or open enrollment model to count students?
• Will students who transition into a two year postsecondary program be tracked to see if they transitioned into a college concentration related to their CTE concentration?
