Betsy DeVos says Louisiana voucher program was 'not very well conceived'
Chalkbeat: Confronted for the first time with new research showing that Louisiana’s voucher program hurt students’ math test scores, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos offered an explanation: the program was badly designed.
“The Louisiana program was not very well conceived. It has discouraged many schools from participating in it, and in fact has encouraged some schools that probably would not have been parents’ first choices,” said DeVos, a school choice proponent, during the Education Writers Association conference in Baltimore Monday. “We see consistently, in the vast majority of cases, students’ achievement continues to improve.”
