q2 · i? · causal · r2

Tuttle et al. (2015, High School) quasi-experimental analysis of high school graduation within 4 years of grade 9 entry for 852 students; the effect size was not large enough to be substantively important, yielding a rating of no discernible effects with small extent of evidence.

"The authors reported, and the WWC confirmed, no statistically significant difference between students who entered KIPP schools for the first time in grade 9 and comparison students."
