March 5, 2025

A new report, Educational and Employment Outcomes for the New Jersey High School Classes of 2014 and 2015,  utilizes the New Jersey Statewide Data System to analyze the trajectories of New Jersey high school graduates. Heldrich Center researchers used descriptive statistics to analyze these graduates’ educational and employment outcomes, such as enrollment in postsecondary education, financial aid received, degree attainment, and employment after high school. This analysis highlights the pathways students take after graduation, showing that 66% either immediately enrolled in postsecondary education or joined the New Jersey workforce.
