Durham & Juan B. Cortes  \nThis brief offers an updated look at the wage outcomes for Baltimore City Public Schools graduates.i A previous study published in 2018 examined outcomes for the class of 2009, showing that the median annual wage for this cohort six years after high school graduation was far below the living wage threshold, even among those with postsecondary credentials. The latest results provide new information for additional cohorts and a longer timeframe for these outcomes.  \nMEDIAN ANNUAL EARNINGS 6 AND 10 YEARS AFTER  \nHIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION  \nFigure 1 shows median annual earnings six and ten years after high school graduation for the classes of 2009 through 2011. To compare trends across cohorts and timeframes, all wages were adjusted to 2021 dollars. This information illustrates two patterns. First, graduates from all cohorts with higher educational attainment (bachelor’s degree and associate/certificate completers) earned significantly more than those with some college or no college experience both six years and a decade after high school graduation. Second, the data among 2010 and 2011 graduates show the protective benefits of completing a postsecondary credential; earnings for these graduates 10 years after high school (i.e. , in 2020 and 2021) cover the period when COVID-19 shutdowns severely impacted employment and wage prospects. While wages for these latter two cohorts were impacted with a lower rate of growth from year six to ten, graduates with a postsecondary credential were impacted less than those with no college experience or those with some college but no degree.  \nFigure 1. Median Annual Earnings 6 and 10 Years after High School Graduation by Postsecondary Attainment, Classes of 2009 through 2011  \nBaltimore Education Research Consortium 1  \n Earnings Outcomes for Baltimore City Schools Graduates in Brief  \nEARNING A LIVING WAGE 6 AND 10 YEARS AFTER HIGH SCHOOL  \nGRADUATION  \nFigure 2 shows the percentage of City Schools graduates who earned a living wage six years after high school for the classes of 2009 through 2015 by postsecondary attainment. A living wage refers to the amount that an individual must earn to pay for basic expenses while working full-time (i.e. , 2080 hours a year) . Overall, the percentage of graduates earning a living wage six years later ranged from a low of between 11% to 15% for those with no college credential, to a high of between 23% and 32% for those with at least a bachelor’s degree. Despite graduates with a bachelor’s degree having higher rates of earning a living wage, most graduates across all levels of postsecondary attainment did not earn a living wage six years after high school graduation.  \nFigure 2. Percentage Earning a Living Annual Wage 6 Years after High School Graduation by Postsecondary Attainment, Classes of 2009 through 2015  \nFigure 3 shows the percentage of students who earned a living wage 10 years after high school graduation for the classes of 2009 through 2011 by postsecondary attainment. Ten years after high school, more graduates in each attainment group were earning a living wage. Graduates with a postsecondary credential had the highest rates of earning a living wage, and for those with at least a bachelor’s degree, over half were earning living wage. In contrast, only about a quarter to one-third of graduates with either some college or with no college earned a living wage 10 years after high school graduation.  \nBaltimore Education Research Consortium 2  \n Earnings Outcomes for Baltimore City Schools Graduates in Brief  \nFigure 3.
