Safer Kids, Better Test Scores: The D.C. Voucher Program Works
by Shanea Watkins, Ph.D.
“Despite this lack of statistical differentiation, students who participated in the Opportunity Scholarship Program achieved higher reading scores than students who did not. The study also indicated that certain subgroups of students experienced significant positive gains in reading achievement.[3] These results are encouraging because they offer compelling evidence of two years of positive achievement gains for D.C. voucher program participants.[4]”[/quote]
Its not politically correct but poverty and low IQ is highly corelated.
That’s why the voucher system would be better for everyone. People with learning deficiencies could get the attention they deserve under it.
