[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids who get vouchers will also get financial aid — if they go to a good school. But there are also some really crappy private schools that have popped up — and their tuition rates are exactly the amount of the vouchers. Since there is no oversight on quality of the education provided via a DC voucher, all sorts of actors have swept into the market. And some are pretty bad. The students in public charters focused on at-risk kids have better outcomes than the students going to school on vouchers. The Post wrote a study on a study of this last year. [/quote] I recall there was a big study that showed the only advantage was the parent of kids in the voucher schools felt their child was safer. Academically those kids performed worse than their peers out of the voucher program. An important study, but De Voss said the evidence did not matter. [/quote]
