This book was released on 2010 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using administrative data on public school students in North Carolina, we find that sixth grade students attending middle schools are much more likely to be cited for discipline problems than those attending elementary school. That difference remains after adjusting for the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of the students and their schools. Furthermore, the higher infraction rates recorded by sixth graders who are placed in middle school persist at least through ninth grade. A plausible explanation is that sixth graders are at an especially impressionable age; in middle school, the exposure to older peers and the relative freedom from supervision have deleterious consequences.

Poindexter and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose of the study . The effects of early entry of a child into first grade is an issue that has raised concern with both parents and educators. Studies show conflicting views regarding the optimal age for school entrance. At issue are the large differences which exist in cognitive, social, and emotional development among children who are up to one year apart in chronological age on entering the formal educational system. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between chronological age and academic success in the middle grades. Specifically, the study investigated the differences in students' academic success as measured by grade point average and the Missouri Mastery and Achievement Test, students' ratings of self-esteem, students' attitude toward school, and students' participation in school activities for chronologically "younger" and "older" students in grades five through nine. Procedures . Four hundred fifty-eight public school students in grades five through nine were surveyed. Students were asked to complete the Student Questionnaire to obtain demographic information, the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory to measure self-esteem, the National Association of Secondary School Principals' Student Self-Satisfaction Survey to determine attitude toward school, and the Student Survey of School Activity Participation to provide data regarding the number and type of activities in which students participate. Grade point average and Missouri Mastery and Achievement Test scores were used to determine academic success. Pearson Product Moment correlation analysis was used to test for significant relationships among the age, achievement, self-esteem, attitude toward school and school activity participation variables. To test for differences in the criterion variables between younger and older students, data were subjected to analysis of variance. Findings . Statistical analysis of the data included descriptive statistics, Pearson Product Moment correlation and analysis of variance. Significant correlational relationships were found between relative chronological age of sixth grade students and perceptions of student discipline and decision-making opportunities. A significant relationship also was found between seventh grade students and perceptions of student activities. Analysis of variance tests revealed no significant differences between younger and older students in grades five, six, eight, and nine on any of the criterion variables. For grade level seven, older students had more positive perceptions of self and peers, attitude toward school and greater activity participation than younger students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using Israeli data, we estimate the effect of school entrance age (SEA) on student outcomes. Unlike much of the recent literature, our identification strategy strictly satisfies the monotonicity assumption required for interpreting our estimates as the local average treatment effect (LATE), and also separates the effect of SEA from date of birth effects. We find that delaying school entry by one year increases fifth grade test scores in Hebrew by 0.34 standard deviations and in math by 0.19. Interestingly, while the advantage in Hebrew slightly decreases in eighth grade, in math it almost doubles. We also show that by failing to control for date of birth fixed effects we would have erroneously concluded that the SEA effect on math test scores decreases slightly from fifth grade to eight grade while it actually substantially increases.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if transitioning from elementary school to middle school has an effect on value added scores of sixth graders versus those with no transition. Additionally, the effect of school size on student gains was examined. Data for this study was from the 2012-2013 school year for 442 Tennessee public schools. There were 203 schools with transition and 239 with no transition. Multivariate analysis of variance was used to analyze the data. Significant interaction was seen between transition and percent minority (p = 0.002). These findings suggest transition had an effect on value added scores depending on whether or not the school had a high percentage of minority students. There was a significant interaction effect of low percent minority and high percent minority where transition was concerned on mathematics, with those schools with a high percentage of minority that did not transition scoring significantly higher than all other combinations. There was also a significant interaction effect between low percent minority and high percent minority where transition was concerned on reading, with those schools with a high percentage of minority that did not transition scoring higher than all other combinations. These results suggest that students in schools with high percentages of minorities perform better when there is no transition than their transitioning counterparts. It lends support to the body of research that suggests K-8, or at least a transition after 6th grade, may be a better model where student achievement is concerned. School size was not significantly related to achievement gains. The middle school concept has the potential to address the academic and emotional concerns of middle school aged children when it is implemented in its full form (Weiss & Kipnes, 2006). However, since the middle school concept is just that, a concept, it would seem that the best combination for student achievement may be to implement the middle school concept into the K-8 environment, giving students more of a sense of community, self-esteem, and ownership of their school and grades. This could also potentially lessen the White to Black gap in math and reading achievement.
