A school event for post-high school planning that focuses on full-time employment opportunities would not be the most effective. The event should have a wide range of opportunities for students to explore.
To complete the statements based on the information provided, we need to analyze the data and draw conclusions from it.
First, we'll determine whether an event focusing on full-time employment would be effective for the majority of students.
Looking at the data, we have:
- College: 84 (38 juniors + 46 seniors)
- Full-time employment: 36 (19 juniors + 17 seniors)
- Other: 80 (43 juniors + 37 seniors)
Since the event would focus on full-time employment, we compare the full-time employment number with the other categories. Full-time employment interests a total of 36 students, which is less than the number of students interested in college (84 students) and also less than the number of students interested in other paths (80 students).
Statement 1: A school event for post-high school planning that focuses on full-time employment opportunities ___ be the most effective.
The correct completion would be "would not" because full-time employment is not the most popular interest among the students.
For the second statement, we need to determine the range of opportunities to be explored at the event. A "narrow" range suggests focusing on one specific interest, while a "wide" range suggests including a variety of interests.
The category with the most interest is "college," which is a more specific pathway compared to "other," which could encompass a multitude of different paths (such as vocational schools, military service, gap years, etc.). Given that "other" represents a larger variety of options and interests, we could infer that there’s a wider range of interests among students in this category.
Statement 2: The event should have a ___ range of opportunities for students to explore.
The correct completion would be "wide" to accommodate the interests indicated by the 80 students who chose "other" pathways.
