Scott J. Peters; Angela Johnson; Matthew C. Makel; James S. Carter III – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2024
Students who are Black or Hispanic have long been disproportionately represented in K-12 gifted and talented services. However, there are schools that have diverged from this trend by identifying atypically high numbers of Black and Hispanic students. In this conceptual replication of Peters and Johnson, we present predictors of whether a school…

This study used five years of data (school years 2012-13 through 2016-17) from across the Houston area to look at what predicted the amount of school year mobility taking place on a campus. Several predictors were considered, including the type of…

Laura María García Carrizosa; Kristof De Witte – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2024
Teacher absenteeism has high individual and societal costs and triggers a vicious cycle by increasing teacher absenteeism for the remaining teachers. Moreover, teachers' non-attendance disrupts the learning process and affects student motivation and achievement. Teacher absenteeism further exacerbates the increasing teacher shortage observed in…

Santelli, Francisco Arturo; Grissom, Jason A. – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2022
Research suggests that longer commute times can increase employee turnover probabilities by increasing job stress and reducing job attachment and embeddedness. Using administrative data from a midsized urban school district, we test whether teachers and school leaders with longer commute times are more likely to transfer schools or exit the school…
