In case you missed it, Fordham released a new report last week: a first-of-its-kind analysis of the districts and the students utilizing open enrollment across district boundaries in the Buckeye State, focusing on which districts did and did not open their borders and on the academic outcomes of students who take advantage of the opportunity.
Interest in the findings was widespread and a sample of the local, state and national media coverage includes:
- The Columbus Dispatch – which has previously covered local school residency and attendance issues
- The blog of The 74 Million – including an interview with Fordham Ohio’s research guru Aaron Churchill
- The blog of Chalkbeat – including a national perspective on the issue
- Statehouse news site Gongwer Ohio – who covered the report and the release event held in Columbus
If you weren’t able to join us for that release event and the important panel discussion included therein – which included the perspective of urban and suburban district leaders as well as a vital parent perspective – please visit Fordham’s YouTube channel or click on the image below to see the full video.
