ELS IGRADE SERIES

HS&B Nearly ten years later, in 1980, the second in the series of NCES longitudinal surveys of high school students was launched, this time starting with two high school cohorts. The NELS:88 cohort was resurveyed again in the spring of 2000, and postsecondary transcripts were collected in the fall of 2000. In 1994, the first out-of-school follow-up took place. High school transcripts were also collected for NELS:88 sample members, as had been done for a subsample of the HS&B sophomore cohort a decade before. The NELS:88 school and student residential data were also mapped to external sources, such as 1990 Census variables, to provide community-level or ecological variables. In 1992 the second follow-up repeated the student and dropout surveys, carried out freshening to ensure a representative senior cohort, repeated the parent and teacher surveys, and also followed a subsample of students who had been excluded from the base year (students who were deemed unable, owing to disabilities or language barriers, to complete the study instruments) to determine how they, and their outcomes, differed from students who had been included. The sample was freshened to represent tenth graders in the United States in the spring of 1990, and students, teachers and school principals were surveyed as well. Two years later, in the spring of 1990, a subsample of base year participants and nonparticipants was followed and resurveyed, when most cohort members were sophomores but others were dropouts or were in other grades. Students were tested in reading, mathematics, science, and social studies. NELS:88 The National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88) was launched in the spring of the 1987-88 school year with an initial sample of 24,599 participating eighth graders, one parent of each student participant, two of their teachers, and their school principal.

Public-use ELS:2002 data are now available for analysis using the PowerStats tool in the NCES DataLab. Contact IES Data Security to request access. The Barron’s ratings can be linked to the elementary/secondary and postsecondary longitudinal studies and can be used for the analysis of 4-year colleges and universities using the NCES postsecondary institution IDs. The data is based on 4-year colleges and universities. It is available as a restricted-use data file. This file has been updated with new 2014 data from Barron’s American College Profiles (2015 edition).
