D.C. Opportunity Scholarships Boost Reading Scores, Family Satisfaction

http://www.heritage.org/Research/Education/wm2391.cfm

"The third-year evaluation reports that the weighted mean tuition of participating private schools was $6,620. But even if private schools charged the full $7,500, that amount is still less than half of the $15,315 that D.C. taxpayers spent per pupil in the 2004–05 school year."

Ahh, the power of the free market: increased quality for less money.
