About 40 thousand kids across Wisconsin do not have a high-performing school within ten miles.
A new study from the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty looks at what it calls high-performing school deserts. WILL says the shortage is worse in rural parts of Wisconsin, but there are issues in many communities. WILL’s Will Flanders says the study is evidence that more school kids need more school choices. Flanders says expanding school choice in the state will help kids who are stuck in poor-performing schools.
