Abstract	The Brown Center on Education Policy at Brookings releases an annual Education Choice and Competition Index (ECCI) that chronicles how school choice is manifested in the nation's 100+ largest school districts. The ECCI scores and ranks districts on the degree to which families within the district's borders have access to: (1) maximum choice; (2) a choice process that maximizes the match between parental preference and school assignment; (3) funding and management processes that favor the growth of popular schools at the expense of unpopular schools; and (4) subsidies for the costs of choice for poor families, particularly for transportation. This report accompanies the fourth release of the ECCI covering the 2013-2014 school year. This report highlights some interesting findings and provides a commentary that focuses on the need for both access to and quality of choice. [For the 2013 report, see ED614747.] (ERIC).
