This report claims that private schools outperform public schools.
Reviewer(s) - Christopher Lubienski and Sarah Theule Lubienski, University of Illinois
The Lubienskis’ review of the report finds that the evidence and claims made in the report are critically flawed. Among other things, the researchers did not control for key student demographic data and student-reported data neglected to include key information.
