Summary:

Examines major provisions in S. 206 and H.R. 471, both the Scholarships for Opportunity and Results Act, to reauthorize the D.C. opportunity scholarship program (DC OSP), which provides scholarships to low-income students in public elementary and secondary schools to attend private schools in D.C. Examines issues associated with changes both bills would make to student assessment and program evaluation requirements, and analyzes how they may affect conduct and design of the evaluation. Provides side-by-side comparison of major provisions in H.R. 471, S. 206, and P.L. 108-199, as amended, to identify proposed changes to DC OSP
