This study employed the 1985 birth records of a midwestern state to assess the educational levels of white, black, and Hispanic adolescents, 15 - 19 years of age, having first and second births. There were age and ethnic differences in the relationship of first and second births to educational levels of adolescents. Marriage was differentially related to educational level among the three ethnic groups. The educational level of fathers, when reported, was significantly correlated with the adolescent childbearers' educational level. Implications of these findings for future research and for programs and policies related to adolescent pregnancy prevention and to educational improvement are discussed.
