🔥What’s the only thing hotter than this week’s weather?🔥

Our new @wheelockpolicybu.bsky.social working paper:

“School Enrollment Shifts Five Years After the Pandemic”

In it, BU Wheelock PhD @abbyfrancis.bsky.social and I ask:

Has the pandemic permanently changed families' schooling choices?

#AEFP2025 has been quite a success. We're really proud of and excited by the work and thoughtful engagement in policy-relevant, rigorous research on display by all of our @buwheelock.bsky.social faculty, students, WEPC alumni, staff and partners. Thanks for a wonderful few days!

I love seeing @wheelockpolicybu.bsky.social students shine at #AEFP2025 🤩
