A 2006 article in a top academic journal investigated the NAEP scores of students in different types of private schools. The study compared these students’ scores to public school students, after controlling for student demographics. journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.3...

As #SchoolVoucher program expands in NC, state finds fewer than 1 in 10 (8.4%) students transferred from public school. Could be some were new to NC, or been homeschooled. Or that like in so many other states, IT'S JUST A SUBSIDY FOR FAMILIES ALREADY IN PRIVATE SCHOOLS www.wral.com/story/most-n...
Most new voucher recipients didn't come from an NC public school, new data shows
It's unclear whether the students who didn't attend a public school last year attended a private school or homeschool or were newcomers to the state.

Florida's taxpayers are funding rich families to buy "TVs up to 55 inches, the Nintendo Wii and in-home internet," and 8,400 tickets to Florida’s theme parks – Disney World, Universal Studios – under the #SchoolVoucher program. #edpolicy www.wesh.com/article/flor...
Why Florida school vouchers can pay for Disney tickets while draining billions from public schools
WESH 2 Investigates uncovers how many families paid for theme park tickets with state-funded vouchers

Indiana just effectively ended tenure, cut higher ed $$, ended funding for public broadcasting, & cut $110 million from public health—funds that will now be spent so that taxpayer funded school vouchers will cover private schools for the richest residents of the state. www.axios.com/local/indian...
Cigarette tax, higher ed cuts in last-minute state budget deal
Public health funding is also taking a hit, but K-12 funding was saved.

Interesting! We already knew these programs have negative impacts on kids using them to attend private schools. But school choice advocates have been claiming that there are still beneficial competitive effects for kids in public schools. Maybe not. #edusky journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

The logic of some advocacy orgs makes me laugh: [Our state] "is home to the nation’s oldest school choice program." AND it also "persistently has the largest racial achievement gaps in the country." Hmm, so I wonder how you want to address that? #edusky www.realcleareducation.com/articles/202...
