The sixteen districts in which 75 percent or more of students are Latino or African American had a mean GPA of 1.71, while the other thirty- four districts had a mean GPA of 1.85. In short, districts serv- ing the largest concentrations of poor and minority children are also those where labor agreements are less flexible and more likely to hinder effective school leadership. Table 6 also provides two additional comparisons. When dis- tricts are compared on the basis of their size, no obvious rela- tionships appear. For instance, the mean grade for the largest districts (those enrolling more than 200,000 students) is the same as those enrolling fewer than 100,000 students. Finally, table 6 compares districts in collective bargaining states with those whose labor agreements take the form of board policies. (See sidebar on page 8 for more details.) Here we find a significant difference: the fifteen districts in nonbar- gaining states averaged a GPA of 2.21 and a Somewhat Flexible rating, while the thirty-five districts in states that mandate collective bargaining had a GPA of 1.63 and a mean rating of Restrictive. There are two ways to make sense of this finding. One is to recognize the large disparity and that, in proximate terms, non-collective-bargaining districts appear to be about 25 percent more flexible than their counterparts. The other is to note that the difference accounts for less than one-third of the spread between the highest- and lowest-scor- ing districts when comparing aggregate grades—and less than one-sixth of the spread when comparing grades in the area of compensation—and that districts in non-collective-bargain- ing states still have relatively restrictive labor policies. Both interpretations offer useful insights and deserve further atten- tion from policymakers and would-be reformers. It should also be noted that all of the five districts rated Flexible are in either North Carolina, Texas, or Virgina, the three states where collective bargaining is explicitly illegal. (Although teachers in Georgia do not practice collective bargaining, it is not strictly prohibited by state law.) Of course, such correlation cannot prove that collective bargaining per se “causes” restric- tive management policy, but it should at least direct the atten- tion of would-be reformers toward these nonbargaining states.
