This new WEAC Research Brief concludes that there is little evidence to substantiate the expansion of private voucher schools
on the grounds that they are
intended to help
student achievement: «Research in Wisconsin and other states consistently shows little to no voucher school advantage, and in fact often documents significant ill -
effects on students including: school closings, high rates of
student attrition for lower - performing
students, and decreased assessment scores in math and reading.»
