Description
Advocates for increased privatization of public schools have long contended that private schools could provide equal or better outcomes at lesser costs. To bolster that argument, this EdChoice report asserts that voucher and voucher-like (tax credit scholarship and education savings account) programs have saved state and local treasuries some $12.4 to $28.3 billion dollars as student "switchers" use those programs to leave public schools and enter private schools. However, the reports's cost-saving estimates of private school choice programs are based on unfounded assumptions. In particular, the report uses speculative methods for estimating the number of switchers across programs and for determining resulting variable cost fluctuations. Such lax accountability standards mean that the number of switchers and estimated fiscal savings are based on conjecture. Consequently, the report's findings do not provide a sound base for policy decisions.
