The Partnership Schools for Liberia (PSL) program will delegate and transfer administrative management of 92 randomly assigned public schools to a variety of private, for-profit companies and non-profit organizations to provide education free of charge to students. However, to understand the impacts of the pilot program and improve future processes from lessons learned, the Government of Liberia would like to engage external researchers to conduct an impact evaluation of the pilot, in order to assess its potential for expansion in the future. IPA was contracted by the Liberian Ministry of Education (MoE) to evaluate the PSL project. Our primary objective is to understand: "What is the impact of attending a PSL public school rather than a traditional public school on student learning outcomes?"
