state panel based on census data from 1940-2010, I examine the impact of
immigration on the high school completion of natives in the United States.
Immigrant children could compete for schooling resources with native
children, lowering the return to native education and discouraging native
high school completion. Conversely, native children might be encouraged to
complete high school in order to avoid competing with immigrant
high-school dropouts in the labor market. I find evidence that both
channels are operative and that the net effect is positive, particularly
for native-born blacks, though not for native-born Hispanics. An increase
of one percentage point in the share of immigrants in the population aged
11-64 increases the probability that natives aged 11-17 eventually
complete 12 years of schooling by 0.3 percentage points, and increases the
probability for native-born blacks by 0.4 percentage points. I account for
the endogeneity of immigrant flows by using instruments based on 1940
settlement patterns. </font></span></div>
