School choice is an umbrella term that describes an array of policies offering alternatives to publicly provided schools. Throughout the history of American education, various school choice policies have been devised to accomplish different goals. This paper focuses on New York City's high school choice policy through the empirical strategy of identifying the top two and bottom two community districts in terms of attainment, first at the secondary level then at the postsecondary level, in order to examine the geospatial relationship of school choice and educational attainment.
