An evaluation of the distributive education program at Capital High School in Helena, Montana through a graduate follow-up survey

Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate the distributive education program at Capital High School in Helena, Montana by conducting a follow-up study of cooperative distributive education graduates from the classes of 1975, 1976, and 1977 to obtain information about actual post-high school educational and employment activities. This evaluation was based on graduates' answers to questions in four areas: (1) general status information, (2) post-graduate occupational experiences, (3) post-graduate educational experiences, and (4) the adequacy and appropriateness of the distributive education program at Capital High School as it relates to their occupational and educational experiences.
