The information used comes directly frdri the annual reports on adulteducation activities submitted to the Division by each State, the District of Columbia,and participating outlying. areas. The data Were edited intbe States, in the Division, andin NCES.

To make.comparison with previous reports easibr, tabld formats usually follow thepatterns of the earlier ye'ars!Tables in the report summarize' data on eniollments, student

-chatatteristics, completions, separations, teachers; classioom facilities, ana-ifiierivicetraining of t achers and other staff meml3ers.

This publication was developed under the direction of Sylvester with theassistance of Barbara A. Whalen, Nancy L. Buckley, and Elaine J. price. Char s Lauthersprovided techlical advice on development of the tables.

Characteristics of the Program

The adult basic and secondary efication programadministered by the U.S. Office of ,Education wasestablished under the Adult Education Act of 1966.This program offers to. persons 16 years' of age andoldeer the opportunity to overcome English-languagedifficulties ,and attain reading, writing, and computa-tional .skills througl; the 12th-grade level of compel,tence. The program also offers 'students. the oppor-tunity/10 earn a high sChoel'diploma.

Each of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and\5 (tallying areas2,has ,established and pperates adultbasic and secondary educatiOn programs, funded inpart by the Office Of Education. .

To participate in the funding program': each'State.or'other area. (except the Trust Territory of the PacificIslands) must provide at least 10 percent of program/--costs and retain total responsibility for planning(supervisory services, teachertraining, curriculum devel-opment, evaluation, and all essential services forenrollees through the 1241 grade. In fiscal year 1975,each State, the District of Columbia, and five outlyingareas conducted adult basic and secondary level edtica-tion programs. As a convention,, the .United Statestogether with the outlying areas are termed "aggregateUnited States."

The Office' of Education also awards "grants toschools, colleges, universities, and public and privatenonprofit organizations f for special projects andtear}' training protects. The act alsd authorizps directCO acts with institutions and orgailizatioifs to 4t;velop teacher-training techniques.'

Data in This Repot,..

-peispective. Most of the, data were compiled froni theannual piogram reports (see appendix) submitted byeach State or other area. Data are presented for theaggregate United States and each State or other area.While. attempts were.maderto compare fiscal year 1975data with those of previous years, revisions in thereport form limited some of the.comparisons.

The 1972 change lowering the minimum age ofstudents served - from '18 .to 16 years complicatedcompairisons between data for the 1971:75, period andthose for earlier 5-year periods. Also changed were (aceOr ethnic groupings and the definitions of gradeequivalents for the three instructional levels. Re-searchers analyling trends should 'note these changes.

This section presents a summary of statistics for fiveconsecutive Federal fiscal years, ending with 1975.,Data for this section, and for the entire publication,come from annual program reports submitted by theStates or other areas.

In these 5 years, 4.5 million persons receivedtraining under the Adult Education Act, as shown intable 1. Enrollments in the more recent years werehigher than in fiscal y,ears 1971 and 1972. Qver 27percent of the participants during the 5-year period1971-74 were recorded for 1975,

Women have consistently provided most of thoseserved by adult blsic education programs, with, onlyslight deviations from year to year.'

As might be anticippted the percentage of personsUnder 25 participating.in adult basic education hasincreased since 1972, whin amendments to the actmade 'persons between 16 and 18 eligible for en-,rollment in federally' aided programs. ,The largestcumulative decline in proportion of participants is forthose ailed 33 to 54. This decline also reflects the factthat many in this age bracketrrnay have already beenterved by theprogrgm.

Personal -Achieve Mint

The States were asked' to provide answeis for aseries of questions. These - required preparation ofreports on program participantV _personal achieve-ments, including registering to vote for the firsttime, obtaining U.S. citizenship or a driver's license,and completing training in how to complete income

. tax returns. Table 12 shows the numbers' of personsreported to have attained these personal objectives.

Economic Status

1 A major goal of most educational programs is toassist Participants' economic as well as personal de-velopment. Table 13 shows the job status of thoseWho participated in adult basic and secondary edu-cation programs. Of those for whom this infor-mation was provided, 42 percent were employed, 37percent unenfployed, and 10 percent on public wel-fare roles.' More important may be the 16.954 per-sons who left the pfiblic-welfare rolls after partici-pating in the program: Also. aided were 64,034persons who obtained employment after partici-pating, and the 38,138 who had been employed blitwho received better jobs.

Classroom and Other Characteristics

The fact that a substantial number of adult .basicand-secondary education classes are conducted in otherthan traditional school settings is sham in tablet 24,25, and 26. Table 24 is a summary table and tables 25and 26 present data for daytime and evening classes,respeCtive4/.

Three a ditional tables in this report are new to theseriesta es 27, 28, and 29. Tables 27 and 28 showdata for institutionalized persons and persons oflimited Englisti-spealcing ability, whereas table 29reports the number of section 309 projects funded by

..the Statd or otbtr area agency.As presented in table 27, enrollmen/ figures for

Institutionalized peLsons in adult basic and secondaryedtkation pip:rains were 49,1 8 and 15,196; respec-tively. 're& were 213,823 enrollees in programs forpersons of limited English-speaking ability, with Cali-fornia programs composing 47 percent of the, total..Station data similarly classified is shown in table2t, with 118,328 and 3,988 ipstitutionalized personswithdrawing from adult basic and secondary educationprograms, respectively. Again California led, with 57,percent of all separations. Table 29 presents data on132 special projects and 95 teacher training plansthroughout the various States and other areas.

Data for tables '27, 28, and 29 were taken' fromsupplementary performance reports that the States andother areas submitted to the Office of Education.Typically, as 1975 was The first year these reports wererequired some States or other areas did not reply.

Readers , of this series of reports are reminded thatthey will not find fiscal data for 1974 and 1975 in thisreport. Te inconsistenclhs among ihe_daltga that thevarious States and other areas provided were such thatno statistically reliable series of tables could bedeveloped. With..t,the continued use of the new formatfor fiscal year 1976, More reliable reporting is antici-pated for this area.
