Robust standard errors in parentheses. ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05, +p < 0.10.

Notes: Models additionally control for all the family, socioeconomic status, and other child controls shown in Table 1 as well as interactions between each and the indicator for Black.

Source: Fragile Families and Child Well-Being Study, Waves 1-5. Model 1 is restricted to the 2,396 Black and White boys and girls who remained in the study from birth (wave 1) through age 9 (wave 5). Models 2-4 are restricted to the 828 children nested within 354 schools with at least one other FFCWS sample Black or White child. Multiple imputation of 20 datasets is used to handle item-missingness on all but the dependent variable (suspension/expulsion).
