The Burlington School District collected and organized by grade the number of youths that attended youth programs each year. This is a very good graph as it shows the progress each grade makes as the students move to a higher grade level each year and whether the number for that grade rose the subsequent year or lowered as students interest waned from the previous year. This shows trends that can be found in youth programs as each year 8th grade seems to have the highest number of attendees.
The reason I chose this graph is because my topic is on youth programming for libraries. With this graph I have an example of the age range based on grade for the amount of students that often attend programs after school. Such graphs can show me the grades to aim at in the future to try to bring to library programming in the future.
