1991年，马萨诸塞州立法机关通过了一项开放招生法，允许学生在家乡社区以外的学校注册。本文描述了一项研究的招生模式下的开放招生计划，截至1992年秋季。这项研究比较了马萨诸塞州在20名或更多择校学生从一个地区转到另一个地区的情况下，发送和接收地区的某些特征。这一比较显示，家庭一般将其子女送入学生成绩指标和社会经济地位高于他们离开的地区的社区的学校。
In 1991, the Massachusetts legislature passed an open enrollment law permitting students to enroll in schools outside their home communities. This article describes a study of enrollment patterns under the open enrollment program as of fall 1992. The study compared certain characteristics of Massachusetts sending and receiving districts in those settings in which 20 or more school-choice students transferred from one district to another. This comparison revealed that families generally enrolled their children in the schools of communities having higher indicators of student performance and higher socioeconomic status than the districts they left.
