How Has the Louisiana Scholarship Program Affected Students after Two Years?

We use a stu­dent-lev­el pan­el data set to ana­lyze the impacts of the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Pro­gram (LSP) on racial seg­re­ga­tion in pub­lic and pri­vate schools. This tar­get­ed school vouch­er pro­gram pro­vides fund­ing for low-income, most­ly minor­i­ty stu­dents in the low­est-grad­ed pub­lic schools to enroll in par­tic­i­pat­ing pri­vate schools. Down­load How Has the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Pro­gram Affect­ed Students?, a pol­i­cy brief by Jonathan N. Mills, Anna J. Egalite, and Patrick J. Wolf that sum­ma­rizes the four Tech­ni­cal Reports on the affects of the Louisiana Schol­ar­ship Program.
