Title: The Long Shadow of School Closures: Impacts on Students' Education and Labor Market Outcomes

Abstract: Each year, about a thousand public schools in the US close, displacing hundreds of thousands of students. I examine the impact of public school closures on displaced students using linked shooling and labor market data from Texas. Using within-school acrosstime/cohort variation in exposure to school closures, I implement difference-in-differences strategies to identify causal effects. I find that school closures decrease test scores, increase absenteeism, and lead to more disciplinary actions. Futhermore, school closures decrease high school completion, college attainment, employment, and earnings at ages 25-27. These impacts are larger for secondary school students and those from economically disadvataged backgrounds.
