This report examines the impact of Georgia’s start-up charter schools on students’ later-life earnings as well as updates previous findings on academic milestones—high school graduation, college enrollment, and degree completion. We use data from Georgia’s Academic and Workforce Analysis and Research Data System (GA•AWARDS), housed by the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement, for this report. This longitudinal data system starts collecting data on Georgia public school students upon their entrance to Georgia’s Pre-K Program, if they participate, all the way through their roles in Georgia’s labor market.
