How Much Does Your State Regulate Private Schools: A Report

The Education Conservation Blog links to this April 2008 report by the Freidman Foundation. Writing on the blog, Tammy Drennan writes:

Overall, what The Friedman Foundation discovered and published in its April 2008 “Fifty Educational Markets” report is that the level of private school regulation in our country is discouraging for those who believe in freedom in education. What they concluded seems logical – we should work to reduce state control over private education if we’re to have any hope of a free market and thus significant improvement of education in the future.

What they didn’t conclude was that government funding of schools and regulation are not separable.
