Comment: Evaluation of the New York City Scholarship Program
This grant supports an evaluation of a program offering private school scholarships for children from low-income families attending New York City public schools. Researchers will collect data on a large sample of families applying for scholarships. They will measure the program's effect on parent choices and student achievement by comparing those families who received the scholarships through a lottery with those in a control group. Thelts will be disseminated through reports, articles in scientific and professional publications, and education policy conferences.
