RAND Turns 75: A Look Through the Decades At World-Changing Research
From anticipating the Space Age in the 1940s to studying gun policy and COVID-19 responses in the 2020s, RAND is celebrating 75 years of research that has made a difference.
The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 authorized parents to remove their children from low-performing schools and receive school vouchers from the government to pay for alternative instruction, such as private school tuition or home schooling costs. RAND has conducted several groundbreaking studies on the effect of school vouchers on student achievement and other educational outcomes.
