Title: The High School and Beyond Data Set: Its Relevance for Bilingual Education Research
Abstract: This article introduces the High School and Beyond (HS&B) data set to bilingual education researchers. The special inclusion of the Hispanic population, the largest language minority in the U. S., will enable researchers to carry out detailed analyses on that population. In addition, the HS&B data set contains information from the students, parents, teachers, and school administrators, thus providing needed variables to test the validity of many of the heated arguments surrounding bilingual education. After describing the variables and the complicated file structures of the HS&B data set, this article concludes that despite its sample constraints, it will be an invaluable set of resources for researchers in bilingual education.
