Abstract: The American population was on the move, moving West and South, and continued to change the geographic distribution of the American population. The de-industrialization of the North caused many families and person to move in search of employment and affordable housing. Along with this change in the geographic distribution of the US population there was a change in the distribution of the US student population. The purpose of this chapter is to examine three educational indicators and their variation by region and by urbanicity. The three indicators I will be examining are: school enrollment, school dropouts, and grade retention.
