Abstract

School choice has emerged as an alternative to traditional public education, allowing families to select schools outside their neighborhood. While extensive research has examined its impact on students overall, there is a need to focus on its specific effects on students with disabilities. This article addresses this gap by reviewing 39 quantitative studies analyzing this issue using administrative data. Twenty-eight focus on charter schools, and 18 compare differences in enrollment—usually referred to as the “SPED gap”—between sectors. However, few publications explore factors contributing to these disparities or variations in services provided and their impact on student outcomes. We propose future research should (a) explore outcomes beyond enrollment disparities, including both academic and non-academic aspects, as well as short and long-term consequences; (b) employ rigorous statistical methods; (c) broaden the scope of the investigation to encompass diverse states and contexts, as well as other choice policies.
择校与残疾学生:来自行政数据的证据
择校已成为传统公立教育的一种替代方式,允许家庭选择其社区以外的学校。虽然已有大量研究探讨了择校对学生的整体影响,但仍有必要关注择校对残疾学生的具体影响。本文通过回顾 39 项使用行政数据分析该问题的定量研究,填补了这一空白。其中 28 项研究关注特许学校,18 项研究比较了不同部门之间的入学率差异--通常称为 "SPED 差距"。然而,很少有出版物探讨造成这些差距的因素或所提供服务的差异及其对学生成绩的影响。我们建议今后的研究应:(a) 探讨入学差距以外的结果,包括学业和非学业方面,以及短期和长期后果;(b) 采用严格的统计方法;(c) 扩大调查范围,涵盖不同的州和背景,以及其他选择政策。
