dc.description.abstract | This paper investigates the labor market returns to high school types. We exploit
comprehensive administrative data describing the school-to-work transition for the
universe of Chilean students attending tenth grade in 2001. We discuss the role of
self-selection into school types, pre-labor market abilities, firm characteristics, and
present bounds for the parameters of interest. Attending private high schools has
long-lasting effects on earnings. Moreover, the long-term returns to school-level valueadded measures and monetary investments in education are larger among private-school
students. Our findings provide new insights into the association of school choice and
the inertia of income inequality. | |
