We are introducing a new calculation to our school choice program rankings this year: educational choice share, or “edchoice share.” The calculations behind this ranking seek to answer one question: Which states have the highest and lowest percentage of students exercising their educational freedom through private school choice programs?

To get this number, we divided the total number of a state’s school choice program participants by the total number of taxpayer-supported students in the state.

Why focus on private choice programs and not all types of educational choice, such as virtual school, homeschool, course choice, charter school, inter- and intra- district choice, and others?

Right now, there are two reasons.

1) To calculate such a figure, we would need state-level participation data for all of the other types of educational choice options mentioned above. Boiled down, available data is simply too inconsistent right now to make an accurate, comparable estimate for all states.

2) This “edchoice share” percentage provides insight into the role private school choice programs play in bridging the stark gap between families’ schooling preferences and today’s actual enrollments.
