Wisconsin Confirmed Success of School Choice

"What we're seeing is pretty strong evidence that school vouchers have positive effects on Educational Attainment, that's how far students go in school. Here in Milwaukee, voucher students graduated from high school at a rate 4-7 percentage points higher than similar MPS [Milwaukee Public School] students. They enrolled in college at a rate 4-7 percentage points higher. Which is a big deal because only about 25% of these students go to college. So a 4-7 percentage point difference that's like a 20% difference."
