Study: Public Schools Just As Good as Private Schools | LiveScience: "Students in public schools have math scores that are just as good if not better than those of students in private schools, according to a new national study.

The research focused across several years on 9,791 kindergarten through fifth-grade students.

'These data provide strong, longitudinal evidence that public schools are at least as effective as private schools in boosting student achievement,' said researcher Christopher Lubienski of the University of Illinois."
