    Dear OPERATION FOLLOW-UP Participant:

    More than a year has passed since you left high school. and the U.S. Orfice of Education is sponsoring the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972. This study, being conducted by the U.S. Bureau of the Census and the Research Triangle Institute of North Carolina, is called OPERATION FOLLOW-UP. It is a nation-wide study which, we expect, will continue over a period of 6 to 8 years and produce valuable and interesting information.

    We are asking you to participate in OPERATION FOLLOW-UP. The purpose of this followup is to find out what has happened to you and other seniors after leaving high school. The fact that you are working, married, in college or vocational school, or starting a family is important not only to you, but also to educational planners and policymakers. Through your completion of this questionnaire, valuable information can be obtained about a very important part of this country's population--young adults who are. going through some of the most signifi~ant experiences of their lives.

    Please take a little time and fill out this questionnaire. Let us know what you are doing, what you have done since high school, and what you are planning to do in the next year or so. All of the information that you provide will be absolutely confidential; your name will never be published or associated in any way with your individual answers. If there are questions that you would rather not answer, simply do not answer them.

    About the questionnaire: you will not need to answer all sections of it. Begin with Section A and follow the instructions for each question. Your answers will guide you to skip parts which don't apply to you. Please follow all these instructions carefully. Most of the questions can be answered simply by circling the number for the response you choose. In some cases, you are asked to write out your answer to a question.

    When you complete this questionnaire please return it to us in the enclosed post-paid envelope. We'll be waiting to hear from you.

    We will be sending you results from OPERATION FOLLOW-UP in 1974. Watch for our OPERATION FOLLOW-UP Newsletters.

    Sincerely,

    J. A. Davis K. A. Tabler RTI Project Director USOE Project Director Center for Educational Research and Evaluation National Center for Educational Statistics

    IP.S. May we have your permission to collect school record information (grades, admission test scores, and program) from your high school? This information, too, will b~ kept in absolute confidence. Please sign your name below if you give permission.
