This study explores changes in school-to-work and career and technical education participation between the 1996-97 and 1998-99 school years in the United States. Employing data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997, the author focused on changes in student characteristics. The study concludes that there are fewer differences between participants in school-to-work in the two years after the initial data collection. There also appears to be a trend toward less participation at each grade level in activities identified as school-to-work although there has been an increase in the proportion of students identified as a career and technical education (CTE) concentrator.
