Abstract

Introduction and Students

 

The School District of Philadelphia matched the City of Philadelphia’s Out of School Time (OST) program participants with district student identification numbers to compare program participation to academic and behavioral outcomes at school. The first task of the analysis was to compare OST attendance for all participants to attendance for OST participants who were matched with a district student identification number. This analysis determined the degree to which there was a difference between the groups, with regard to program attendance. Table 1 describes the participants with district student identification numbers (“Matched Students”) and Table 2 describes all students identified as having participated in the City’s OST programs (“All Students”).
