Merging school district data sets with data from other agencies – such as State Departments of Labor or Vital Statistics – allows new insights into the causes and consequences of educational outcomes.  Researchers associated with the Everyone Graduates Center have conducted several projects involving merged data bases.  A key partner in this effort has been the Kids Integrated Data System (KIDS), housed at the University of Pennsylvania.  For more information about KIDS, visit http://cml.upenn.edu/.
