Summary/Abstract: The hereby work, mainly relying on data having resulted out of our own research, yet, analyzed and interpreted in the context of the results obtained by other researchers during the previous years, attempts at emphasizing the elements that influence high school students’ educational and social trajectory. In fact, the work stresses the importance of the economic, human, and social intra-familial capital while choosing the school where children are to learn as well as upon the latter’s future professional trajectory after graduating secondary education. Our research goal was the carrying out of an all-inclusive research, which finally resulted in the questioning of 327 students out of a total number of about 400 high school students. We chose as the method of our research the questionnaire-grounded inquiry. The inquiry was indirect, collective, and test-type, while the instrument of the research was the questionnaire, which included 35 items, most of them related to opinion and attitude, though, not neglecting factual questions, mainly those connected to identification. The results obtained confirm certain previous studies, both in Romania and abroad, regarding the influences of children’s social origin on their entire educational and professional career, starting with the choice of high school and continuing with that of the University in which they complete their educational and professional training. The article demonstrates that the image of the community, the way it is reflected in the conscience of young people can influence their plans for the future.
