Title:	WWC Review of the Report "Milwaukee Parental Choice Program Longitudinal Educational Growth Study Fifth Year Report"
Description:	The study examined the effectiveness of the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program (MPCP), which provides vouchers for low-income students to attend private schools. In 2010, about 21,000 children participated in the MPCP, and the maximum voucher amount was nearly $6,500. The study estimated the effect of the voucher program by comparing over 600 MPCP students' standardized test scores in 2010--four years after they were given a voucher--with those of comparison group students.
