Follow-Up Survey
INTRODUCTION
We are interested in learning more about how high schools can help young people succeed. Your school district was selected for the research because it received money as part of the Youth CareerConnect (YCC) program that the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) funded. When DOL gave schools money, it also asked Mathematica Policy Research to conduct a study about high school. This study includes a short survey. Your parent or guardian has given permission for you to participate in this study and complete this survey.
The survey should take around 30 minutes to complete. To thank you for completing the survey, we will send you a gift card worth [FILL $25 OR $40]. The card can be used anywhere that a credit or debit card can be used.
The survey will ask about your experiences in school, courses you have taken, your behavior in school, activities, and plans for future education. All the information you give will be protected and used only for research. Your information may be linked with federal or state administrative data, such as your school grades or attendance record, for future study purposes.
Nothing bad will happen to you if you don’t want to participate. You can stop being in the study or completing the survey at any time. However, with your input, youth programs can become stronger, more appropriate, and better able to meet youth needs in the future.
If you have any questions about the study or the survey, please feel free to contact Alicia Harrington by phone at 1-844-213-9986 or by e-mail at [email protected]. If you have any questions about your rights as a research volunteer, please call the New England Institutional Review Board at 1-800-232-9570.
