| Abstract: | Amid widespread declining enrollment, the expiration of COVID-19 ESSER funding, and looming uncertainty in federal P-12 education involvement, many school districts may soon consider permanent school closures. While extant permanent school closure literature provides a starting point for future analyses, it often fails to advise the breadth of contexts in which future closures may occur, limiting what education leaders might learn from a disruptive intervention. In this article, we present a conceptual framework to guide permanent school closure research, inclusive of schooling and local contexts, idiosyncratic closure processes and dynamics, relevant analytic mechanics, and myriad important outcome measures and objectives.
