Post High School Outcomes Survey Initiative


This IDEA discretionary grant collects post high school outcomes data on students with disabilities who successfully exit high school or age out at 21 through the use of a survey which includes questions about independent living, post secondary education, and employment.

To date, no parallel data has been collected for exiting students without disabilities. Therefore, no comparative data are available for non-disabled peers in the areas of independent living, post secondary education and employment.

Wisconsin currently does not collect data about post high school outcomes for students without disabilities. For Year 5, we will be conducting this survey to identify and learn from districts' data where there are gaps between outcomes for individuals with disabilities and their non-disabled peers. Using the information we gain through this grant's activities, the dollars and staff assigned to the transition grant can be more targeted toward improving practices to close identified gaps.
