Abstract
The Connected Lane County (CLC) Mid/High Bridge Committee contracted with the Community Planning Workshop at the University of Oregon to conduct a series of listening sessions with middle school-aged youth across Lane County. The goal was to gather information regarding students' post-secondary aspirations, the support students felt they were getting from their school, and what they felt they needed from their schools to achieve their goals. This report summarizes research on aspirations, the methodology used to schedule and conduct the sessions, the over-arching themes that came out of the sessions, actual student voices collected in writing, and suggestions for future listening sessions, policy and intervention.
