We therefore use a variety of
fixed effects approaches to
estimate the link between student achievement and these three forms of being to new one's job assignment — new to teaching, new to school, or new to position within the same school — with a particular focus on the latter given that so many teachers experience within - school reassignments and we know so little about how students are affected by it.
