The study was performed by Christopher Lubienski and Sarah Theule Lubienski, of the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. They compared fourth- and eighth-grade math scores of more than 340,000 students in 13,000 regular public, charter and private schools on the 2003 National Assessment of Educational Progress. Details from the New York Times.
