Beginning in 1973, the career placement center of the Des Moines Independent School District instituted a student employment survey in an attempt to quantify part-time student employment during the summer and school months. The data presented was collected over a two-year period and represents 2,074 senior high school student responses. There were four sections to the 20-item questionnaire: summer employment, school year employment, employment counselor effectiveness, and student attitudes. The questionnaire items and resulting data are presented and analyzed with accompanying graphs and charts and discussion of the conclusions. (Author/NJ)
