Study links ESA program to kindergarten tuition spike in Iowa
A Brown and Princeton study links Iowa’s education savings account ESA to a 21 to 24 percent rise in kindergarten tuition at private Iowa schools since 2023. Researchers compare Iowa with Nebraska, note inflation and funding issues, and question ESA’s goal of broad private school access for low income families. The study uses 51 percent of private schools and contrasts with public funding dynamics and potential student attrition.
