註釋Following an arrest, many students transfer to a new school. In fact, 22 states require schools to transfer arrested students. Given that students who transfer schools have a higher risk for academic challenges linked to dropout and/or delayed graduation, transfer following arrest may prevent academic progress for justice-involved youth. Data from 1,021 Philadelphia students arrested in schools during the 2013-2014 school year were examined, comparing graduation likelihood, dropout likelihood, and time to dropout among students who transferred to a new school within two months of arrest and those who did not transfer. Results from logistic regression analyses indicated no significant differences between transferred and non-transferred students in their likelihood of graduation or dropout. Stratified Cox proportional-hazards regression results revealed that transferred students had a significantly longer time to dropout following arrest than did their non-transferred peers. Implications for stakeholders and future research directions are discussed.
