Sheets, M. E. (2011). 1 (1)

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the condition of rural public high school facilities in Texas and the educational outcomes of student achievement, student attendance, and teacher turnover, while considering the effects of the demographic variables of student wealth level (percentage of economically disadvantage students), school district wealth level (property value per student), and percentage of minority students. The measures for the condition of facilities variables used in this study were obtained from the 2006 Texas Comptroller’s Facility Survey of the 1,037 public school districts in Texas.
