In recent years, the number of students taking College in the Schools (CIS) courses has increased. However, a trend exists that demonstrates a decreasing number of students who take CIS courses attend Central Lakes College after completing high school. This focus group study is designed to develop a deeper understanding of CIS student experience so that CIS program developers can become informed with regard to positive and negative student experiences as well as student career and academic plans post graduation.enReport
