Abstract:
The Metropolitan Council for Educational Opportunity (Metco) is a desegregation program that sends students from Boston schools to more affluent suburbs. Metco increases the number of blacks and reduces test scores in receiving districts.

Instrumental variables estimates for third graders are imprecise but generally in line with ordinary least squares estim
