Steinberg, Molly Pileggi, and Ruth Neild • September 2019  \nPhiladelphia offers an extensive array of public high school options for students, including charter schools, traditional schools, schools with selective admissions, and schools at which admission is based on residence (that is, neighborhood catchment zones) . A large number of education options might benefit students by enabling them to find schools that are the right fit for them. But a choicerich education system might also increase student mobility from one school to another during highschool. For example, schools might counsel students experiencing academic or behavioral problems to enroll elsewhere, while the extent of school choices might lead some students to continue shopping for schools throughout their high school years. While some student mobility is expected and perhaps even beneficial for some students, prior research shows that, on average, students who move schools have lower academic achievement and higher dropout rates than their non-mobile peers. Studies have also shown that there are negative consequences for non-mobile students if many of their peers are mobile.  \nWhile many studies have shown a connection between student m","cbCaim1Hx7wGhqCK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaim1Hx7wGhqCK","pdf",1134712,47,"English","# About this study\n# About PERC\n# Suggested citation\n# Key findings","[{\"question\":\"What is the goal of this study for Philadelphia’s Project U-Turn?\",\"answer\":\"The study supports Project U-Turn’s citywide effort to raise graduation, engagement, and re-engagement rates by providing evidence on student mobility and dropout likelihood.\"},{\"question\":\"What data years and student population does the study analyze?\",\"answer\":\"The study uses four years of student-level data for all students enrolled in Philadelphia public high schools from the 2013-14 through 2016-17 school years.\"},{\"question\":\"How common is student mobility among Philadelphia high school students during the study period?\",\"answer\":\"About one-third of Philadelphia high school students were mobile during the study period.\"}]","Student Mobility and Dropout in Philadelphia High Schools, 2013-14 through 2016-17 | PDF",1792058761,118]
