(The Center Square) -Low- and middle-income Wisconsin students fared better after multiple years in private school choice programs than comparable public-school students, according to a new peer-reviewed study.
"This groundbreaking research provides some of the clearest evidence yet; school choice is a win for students,” WILL Research Director Will Flanders said in a statement.
“Our peer-reviewed analysis focuses on low-and-middle-income Wisconsin students who are the sole participants in Wisconsin’s unique choice programs.
Our research should serve as a fire alarm for states evaluating new limitations or even repealing their choice programs.
“The result was clear: the longer students participate in the ‘Choice Program’ the better their academic results, on average.”
