Thesis (M.S.)--North Carolina Central University, 2018.

Historic and new patterns of social-cultural-economic membership influence educational achievement across all academic levels. The effect of these patterns has increased forms of stratification across educational institutions and has widened the gap between good schools and bad schools. As new forms of analysis have been developed in recent years, traditional statistical models may be less effective in identifying characteristics that predict educational success. The purpose of this thesis is to identify family/individual characteristics which directly contribute to patterns of educational outcomes for kids in pre-kindergarten through high school. With these characteristics, this thesis conducts a comparative analysis between non-spatial and spatially weighted regression models to determine if geography is a significant indicator when predicting academic outcomes. Calculating each models' residual values, it was determined that no statistical significance existed within the findings of the research. Within the structure of this study, geography was not a significant contributor to educational success.
