Ben Scafidi – EdChoice, 2025
Do education choice programs take money from public school districts, leaving fewer resources for students who remain? The issue at the heart of this question is one of the most powerful arguments offered by skeptics and opponents of such programs. A district's total budget might expand or contract as its student population expands or contracts.…

Jason Bedrick; Ed Tarnowski – EdChoice, 2025
Opponents of education choice recycle the same false prophesies of doom without regard to the evidence or the size and scope of the proposals. For decades, the most common objection to education choice policies has been that they will "destroy public education." According to the critics, choice policies will induce the parents most…

The rapid expansion of neo-liberal regimes has effectively transformed how students -- their role and purpose -- are understood in society.

More recent studies have begun to explore students' views of this construction.…

The year 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of implementation of New Jersey's court-ordered, full-day, high-quality preschool program in the state's 31 high-poverty, urban, "Abbott" districts.

The charter sector has historically received significant federal support through the Charter School Program, which was allocated $440 million in fiscal year 2020.

While there has been disinvestment into higher education, there is also a significant disparity in state investment for certain types of public institutions, specifically for less-resourced institutions such as HBCUs (Williams, 2020). There is not much literature that examines the relationship of formula funding or state appropriations on…

Where improved performance can be easily achieved, it spends money where it is not needed.…
