Description
This brief investigates whether closing schools and transferring students for the purpose of remedying low performance is an option educational decision makers should pursue. The logic of closing schools in response to low student performance goes like this: By closing low-performing schools and sending students to better-performing ones, student achievement will improve. The threat of closure may motivate low-performing schools (and their districts) to improve in order to preempt school closures. The relatively limited evidence base suggests that school closures are not a promising strategy for remedying low student performance.
