Time to sum up the work products of the School Choice Demonstration Project in @ua_edreform at @uacoehp at @UArkansas for 2023. I can't resist doing it to the tune of "The 12 Days of Christmas," given the easy rhyming scheme. Here goes!


BOOK ALERT: The latest book on the success of low-cost private schools in developing countries is due out in January. I've ordered it. You should, too! netgalley.co.uk/catalog/book/7…


Another important investigative piece by @vincebielski, well worth a read: How the Avalanche of Academic Papers Threatens Scientific Research realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2025/…


ICYMI: Terrific piece @reason on how & why #Homeschooling Hits Record Numbers. Now 6% of all school-age children! Lots of assistance from @AngelaRWatson, @pauldiperna & others. @EdChoice @ClarkRimsza @ErikaDonalds @hmatthewlee @NealMcCluskey reason.com/2025/11/19/hom… via…

#Arkansas is so fortunate to have @ua_edreform. The 20yrs celebration at @crystalbridges was a testament to the value they bring to the nation!! FACT-> “This is what reform looks like when it is grounded in evidence and backed by research.” @hpatrinos #arleg #Arpx #arnews


Congratulations Dr. @DaionDaniels! It has been a joy and a blessing to serve as your @ua_edreform faculty mentor these past years. More great achievements await you!

From Section 8 housing to becoming the first person in my entire family to earn a PhD and the youngest PhD graduate from @ua_edreform, I am grateful for everyone who supported me. All glory to God! A successful dissertation defense. @FlowTap1 @hpatrinos

Anyone can analyze the General Social Survey (at U Chicago, funded by fed govt) to see the happiest women (& men) today are married w/ kids. The GSS is the gold standard of American social surveys. gss.norc.org

Shocking that the conservative Institute for FAMILY Studies would produce a graph that shows that married women (with kids!) are the happiest people on the planet! Biased much?

Oakland is a great case study of how school choice provides an escape valve (for families) and alternative accountability mechanism in communities where "democratic control" functions poorly. archive.ph/hHuyp

ICYMI, read this excellent substack post by @mlueken2 & @nathan_w_san on What Really Limits School Choice. Spoiler alert, it is "Complicated application forms, documentation requirements, narrow enrollment windows, or poor outreach." They have great recs open.substack.com/pub/informedch…
