摘要

美国公立学校为学生提供的教育机会大相径庭--即使在学区内也是如此，因为学区边界（AZB）决定了大多数儿童的入学机会。因此，（重新）划定就学区边界是一项影响重大的政策决定。在本文中，我研究了 2000 年至 2020 年间华盛顿特区大都会地区学区划分的变化如何影响不同种族的儿童，包括如何改变儿童上学的交通时间和获得学校层面的教育机会。研究结果显示出明显的不平等，重新分区对黑人和西班牙裔儿童产生了不成比例的负面影响。研究结果突出表明，教育领导者需要明确考虑 AZB 的变化将如何重新分配区内的教育机会。

Rezoning Educational Opportunities: The Relationship Between School Attendance Zone Boundary Changes and Access to Schools of Varying Quality

U.S. public schools provide substantially different educational opportunities to students—even within school districts, where attendance zone boundaries (AZBs) shape most children’s access to schools. The (re)drawing of AZBs is therefore a highly consequential policy decision. In this paper, I study how AZB changes in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area affect children of different races between 2000 and 2020, including how they alter children’s travel times to school and access to school-level educational opportunities. Findings are starkly unequal, with rezoning disproportionately negatively affecting Black and Hispanic children. Results highlight the need for educational leaders to explicitly consider how AZB changes will redistribute opportunity within their districts.

Educational Policy blends the best of educational research with the world of practice, making it valuable resource for educators, policy makers, administrators, researchers, teachers, and graduate students. Educational Policy is concerned with the practical consequences of policy decisions and alternatives. It examines the relationship between educational policy and educational practice, and sheds new light on important debates and controversies within the field. You"ll find that Educational Policy is an insightful compilation of ideas, strategies, and analyses for improving our educational systems.
