Abstract: Research on the outcomes of students has shown that juvenile justice system involvement was associated with lower odds of high school graduation, college enrollment, and increased school days missed because of suspension and expulsion. Using longitudinal data from the Maryland Longitudinal Data System (MLDS) for students who were in the 9th grade in Maryland public schools in the 2013-2014 school year, this study extends prior research by examining students' absence from their traditional school setting as a potential mechanism explaining the relationship between justice system involvement and diminished educational outcomes. It also examines whether this relationship differs by region, sex, race/ethnicity, and deepest level of justice system involvement (arrest, adjudication, residential placement, non-residential placement).
