Frequency: Annually.
Next Data Available:
November 2005
Explanation: FY 2004 data established the baseline for measures (a) and (b). The number of students who have the option of attending participating Voluntary Public School Choice (VPSC) schools is the total of all students eligible to apply for transfers. In some instances, grantees may not have slots available for all students applying for a transfer. For instance, VPSC in Chicago includes 23 schools, but the transfer option is offered districtwide. Nine sites reported that 3,694 students transferred under VPSC. The percentage of students participating in VPSC for measure (b) is the percentage of students who transfer among those eligible to participate across the 13 total grantees. For measure (a), the performance target is the estimated number of participating students when projects are fully implemented, excluding Florida, for which no estimate was possible. For measure (b), the target for 2005 is the baseline plus 2 percent.
