Abstract	This longitudinal study provides the Los Angeles (California) Unified School District with information on the educational experience of handicapped minors in high school and on their experiences during the first five years following departure from high school. This report covers the 1986-87 school year, and concerns 760 senior high school handicapped students, representing all disability groups except students with language and speech disabilities and non-categorical disabilities and students under the control of the Assessment Service Center. A total of 102 subjects dropped out of the school by the second year of the study. Focus was on determining whether or not the training provided to handicapped students in high school effectively prepares them for the working world and independent living. Data were generated via a pre-graduation data form, a graduate plans survey, and a graduate follow-up survey. Data on dropouts were also collected. Recommendations based on study findings cover college and career counseling, dropout incidence, and data collection. Twenty-eight data tables and 17 figures are included. Training materials, evaluation forms, and handicap class codes are appended. (TJH)
