Voucher Studies Released

February 23, 2016

The Education Research Alliance for New Orleans is pleased to announce the release of four reports on the Louisiana Scholarship Program.

On Mon­day, Feb­ru­ary 22, we released a series of four new stud­ies on the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Pro­gram (LSP). This project, in part­ner­ship with the School Choice Demon­stra­tion Project at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Arkansas, address­es the effects of LSP vouch­ers on the achieve­ment and non-cog­ni­tive skills of stu­dents offered vouch­ers, as well as racial seg­re­ga­tion and the com­pet­i­tive effects on stu­dents in pub­lic schools. The pol­i­cy brief How Has the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Pro­gram Affect­ed Students? sum­ma­rizes the four Tech­ni­cal Reports on the affects of the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Program.
