Abstract

We find that, when officials relax school attendance policy as a prophylactic measure against an epidemic, students of higher early high school performance take more absences, while students of lower early high school performance keep going to school. Early high school performance is positively associated with neighborhood income, suggesting that students with limited out-of-school resources may be less likely to distance themselves from school during an epidemic.
