of students during these critical years 

and will allow researchers to examine 

associations between contextual factors 

and student outcomes. The study will 

focus on student achievement in 

mathematics and literacy along with 

measures of student socioemotional 

wellbeing and other outcomes. The 

study will also include an oversample of 

students with different types of 

disabilities that will provide descriptive 

information on their outcomes, 

educational experiences, and special 

education services. Baseline data for the 

MGLS:2017 will be collected from a 

nationally-representative sample of 6th

annual follow-ups in spring 2018 and 

spring 2019 when most of the students
