The purpose of the present study was to collect data to create the first draft of an instrument that can potentially measure students' perceived parental, teacher, school counselor, and school personnel expectations. A focus group of 18 students enrolled in a Northeastern suburban high school and 2 first-year college students that graduated from the same suburban high school were used. The widely accepted six-step model of concept mapping was followed: preparation, generation, structuring, representation, interpretation, and utilization. In the preparation stage, two 2018 graduates from the same high school as the focus group participants were interviewed to assist in the creation of the focus group prompts. A total of 16 participants took part in the generation stage. Eighteen participants took part in the structuring stage and 14 participants took part in the interpretation stage. The results of this study can be used to further investigate the gap in representation between minority students and dominant culture students in courses or programs of advanced study, such as honors courses and Advanced Placement (AP) programs. The study was particularly interested in the opportunity gaps that occur in affluent schools, a phenomenon that some researches find to be more pervasive in schools with small populations of low income and/or Students of Color (SOC). The data collected through the concept mapping process allowed for the first draft of a student-driven instrument to be created. Students' statements, sortings, and ratings were used to create the 23-item inventory. Twenty-two of the items were statements provided by students during the generation stage and then rated highly by students during the structuring stage. Data trends and implications for educators and future research are discussed.
