This study examines the results of multiple evaluations of the
Cleveland Scholarship and Tutoring Grant Program (CTSP), a
state-funded voucher program, by exploring extant evaluations and
literature. Attention will be given to the following research
question: Does participation in the Cleveland Scholarship and
Tutoring Grant Program have the hypothesized positive effect on
traditional public school students' academic achievement?
Cleveland's voucher program provides an ideal contextualized
setting for ascertaining the extent to which school choice programs
afford poor families the same educational options available to
affluent families. This study concludes that overall there are no
statistically significant gains in voucher students' academic
achievement. In fact, it appears that some voucher students
performed slightly worse in math. The program does, however, afford
low-income students the opportunity to attend private secular or
religious schools in accordance with the program's initial design
and intent.
