The Thomas B. Fordham Institute released a first-of-its-kind statewide analysis of interdistrict open enrollment. Using anonymous student-level data, Ohio State University professor Stéphane Lavertu and Deven Carlson of the University of Oklahoma examined the background characteristics of open enrollees along with their academic outcomes as gauged by state exams and graduation rates. 

In conjunction with the report release, Fordham held a public event featuring important discussion of this widespread but often-overlooked means of school choice in the Buckeye State. The researchers discussed their findings and a panel of education experts will discuss the implications of the report. The discussion focused on the benefits and challenges of the policy; how it impacts the families, students, and districts involved; and how Ohio policy makers might strengthen open enrollment policies in the future.
