This book evaluates public and private schooling, especially in regard to choices families must make for their children.While choice among publics schools is widely advocated today by families and states, public support for private education - including vouchers, tax credits, charter schools, and private contracting - is politically controversial. The authors accessibly describe what research shows as to the effects - for communities and children - of these approaches. They move beyond school choice to show how other factors - most notably the family - have a strong effect on a child's educational success. The book helps educators and parents better understand the rapidly changing educational environment and the important choices they make in educating the nation's children. 606 $aPrivatization in education$zUnited States 606 $aSchool choice$zUnited States 606 $aEducation and state$zUnited States 615 0$aPrivatization in education 615 0$aSchool choice 615 0$aEducation and state 676 $a379.1110973 700 $aBelfield$b C.
