[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have friends who lived in a state (not TX) with vouchers that had a strict income cut-off. They said it made their private more economically diverse than it otherwise would have been.[/quote]

This is a well-established and supported fact.  It’s really ironic how people are so opposed to greater diversity in school. [/quote]

Anecdote isn't data.  Bring data:

Students in Louisiana’s Scholarship voucher program experienced declining achievement in both language arts and mathematics during their first two years in the program (Mills and Wolf 2023). Similarly, Waddington and Berends (2018) found that voucher students in the Indiana Choice Scholarship voucher program experienced declining achievement in mathematics one year after attending private school. Under the Ed Choice Program in Ohio, voucher students who previously attended high-performing public schools performed worse than they would have had they remained in public school (Figlio and Karbownick 2016).[/quote]

^ more inconvenient facts for MAGA idiots to ignore.
