Abstract

A pervasive issue in the school choice literature is whether schools of choice cream skim students by enrolling high-achieving, less-challenging, or less-costly students. Similarly, schools of choice may “push out” low-achieving, more-challenging, or more-costly students. Using longitudinal student-level data from Indiana, we created multiple measures to examine whether there is evidence consistent with the claims of voucher-participating private schools cream skimming the best students from public schools or pushing out voucher-receiving students. We do not find evidence consistent with the claim of cream skimming. However, we find evidence consistent with the claim of private schools pushing out the lowest-achieving voucher students. This is the first study to examine these two issues within a statewide private school voucher program.
参加全州私立学校代金券计划的学生
择校文献中一个普遍存在的问题是,择校是否会通过招收成绩优异、挑战性较低或成本较低的学生来“揩脂”学生。同样,择优录取的学校可能会“淘汰”成绩不佳、更具挑战性或成本更高的学生。利用来自印第安纳州的纵向学生水平数据,我们创建了多种测量方法,以检查是否有证据与参与代金券的私立学校从公立学校中剔除最优秀的学生或排挤接受代金券的学生的说法相一致。我们没有发现与脱脂奶油的说法相一致的证据。然而,我们发现的证据与私立学校驱逐成绩最差的代金券学生的说法一致。这是第一个在全州范围内的私立学校代金券计划中检查这两个问题的研究。

期刊介绍: Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis (EEPA) publishes manuscripts of theoretical or practical interest to those engaged in educational evaluation or policy analysis, including economic, demographic, financial, and political analyses of education policies, and significant meta-analyses or syntheses that address issues of current concern. The journal seeks high-quality research on how reforms and interventions affect educational outcomes; research on how multiple educational policy and reform initiatives support or conflict with each other; and research that informs pending changes in educational policy at the federal, state, and local levels, demonstrating an effect on early childhood through early adulthood.
