Project Description

Summary: In this study, we provide the first investigation of how teachers from different generations affect the absence rate of students and whether this effect differs across Black and White students. Using administrative data from North Carolina, we find that Millennial teachers are more effective at reducing absences compared to Baby Boomer teachers and that this gap is larger for their Black students.
