As much as $116 million in public dollars could be funneled to private schools in Indiana this year, the majority of which are affiliated with a religious institution.
The CEEP report says that in some cases, Indiana students from families making 370 times more than the federal poverty level are eligible for vouchers. Indiana also earned top marks last summerin a state-by-state ranking of voucher programs by the Center for Education Reform, a Washington-based research and advocacy group that supports school choice.
