Yes, and then I am being asked to cluster the standard errors on the schools because there are multiple kids per school. Is that redundant?

Kit,
I think she is introducing school variables as dummy variables (LSDV) but in the presence of endogenous regressors.

Yes, I've tried that. I receive a different error message...

Warning: estimated covariance matrix of moment conditions not of full rank.
         standard errors and model tests should be interpreted with caution.
Possible causes:
         singleton dummy variable (dummy with one 1 and N-1 0s or vice versa) partial option may address problem.


I am also wanting to include school fixed effects in my model as well as cluster by school. Could this be the problem?
I do not get the message above when I drop the school fixed effects.



You should be using Mark Schaffer's -xtivreg2- from SSC if you have school fixed effects.
