Claire McKinley Yoder; Mary Ann Cantrell; Janice L. Hinkle – Journal of School Nursing, 2024
Multiple factors influence a student's success in high school graduation. Individual factors such as disability, racial or ethnic identity, and gender may result in inequity in the school environment, interfering with learning and possibly leading to poorer educational outcomes. This secondary analysis of student educational records (N = 3,782)…

Darrin DeChane; Takako Nomi; Michael Podgursky – National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research (CALDER), 2024
Like most other states, Missouri uses assessments intended to measure whether students are on a pathway to "college and career readiness." The state longitudinal data system now has the capacity to directly test that claim. We make use of 8th-grade assessment (MAP) scores in Math, Science, and Communication Arts for roughly 260,000…

Marcia H. Davis; Juan B. Cortes; Rachel E. Durham; Francesca Gamber – Baltimore Education Research Consortium, 2024
Working from the notion that the goal of middle school is to prepare students to successfully transition to high school, Baltimore Education Research Consortium (BERC) researchers investigated a range of outcomes consistent with this aim, such as performance in ninth grade, promotion to tenth grade, and course grades or test scores in middle…

Lam D. Pham; Sean P. Corcoran; Gary T. Henry; Ron Zimmer – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Whole-school reforms have received widespread attention, but a critical limitation of the current literature is the lack of evidence around whether these extensive and costly interventions improve students' long-term outcomes after they leave reform schools. Leveraging Tennessee's statewide turnaround reforms, we use difference-in-differences…

Sarah Ruth Morris; Alison Heape Johnson – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2024
High school graduation is a pivotal milestone that can shape students' future, offering them opportunities for higher education and gainful employment. Because research shows grade point averages and course failures to be predictive of high school graduation, it is important for students' life outcomes that their teachers assign them equitable…

This brief analyzes 4-year graduation rates among students ever classified as English learners (ever-ELs) and those never classified as English learners (never-ELs) at the intersections of gender, race/ethnicity, and neighborhood income. We follow two cohorts of New York City students who entered ninth grade in 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 (N =…

Sarah A. Cordes – Education Finance and Policy, 2024
The charter school sector has expanded beyond brick-and-mortar schools to cyber schools, where enrollment grew almost tenfold between 2015 and 2020. While a large literature documents the effects of charter schools on test scores, fewer studies explore impacts on attainment or postsecondary outcomes and there is almost no work exploring the…

Courtney, Jon R.; Garcia, Janelle Taylor; Rowberry, Jacob; Eckberg, Nathan; Dinces, Sarah M.; Lobaugh, Clayton S.; Tolman, Ryan T. – International Journal of Child Care and Education Policy, 2023
The long-term impact of prekindergarten programs is an important consideration given the trend of dedicating more resources to these programs. However, long-term impact of prekindergarten programs is not well-understood and recent studies have shown preschool effectiveness can vary across states and programs. A state run prekindergarten program in…

While a number of factors have already been shown to impact variations in graduation rates among students in Canada, there is little research examining the changing impact of these factors on Ontario students' secondary education completion over time. This research draws on data from two Grade 9 cohorts (2006 and 2011) from the Toronto District…

Sorensen, Lucy C.; Bushway, Shawn D.; Gifford, Elizabeth J. – Education Finance and Policy, 2022
Nationwide, school principals are given wide discretion to use disciplinary tools like suspension and expulsion to create a safe learning environment. There is legitimate concern that this power can have negative consequences, particularly for the students who are excluded. This study uses linked disciplinary, education, and criminal justice…
