  • Notes: Coefficients and standard errors from regression of grades of completed schooling on indicator variable for children with dropout-risk score above the cutoff. Polynomial Regression Order 1 includes dropout-risk score and its interaction with the indicator for children with scores above the cutoff; Polynomial Regression Order 2 includes dropout-risk score and its square, and interactions with the indicator for children with scores above the cutoff; choice of bandwidth for Local Linear Regressions described in body of paper. Standard errors cluster at level of primary feeder school.
