midsch {eeptools}

A dataframe of aggregate test scores for schools in a Midwest state.

Description

This data comes from publicly available aggregated test scores of a large midwestern state. Each row represents scores for school A in grade X and then scores in school A and grade X+1. Additionally, some regression diagnostics and results from a predictive model of test scores in grade X+1 are included.

Usage
