This study is one of the first to estimate the impact of "inclusive" science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) high schools using student-level data. We use multiple statistical strategies to estimate the effect on student achievement from 2 years of attendance at six such high schools in Ohio. The results indicate that…

Forty-five male and 45 female students from two intact, single-sex, classes participated in this study. A flow-map method was…
