His research has examined the educational benefits of cultural institutions, school-community partnerships, art and music education, teacher diversity, urban charter schools, and the cognitive and non-cognitive effects of means-tested school choice programs for at-risk students. His academic publications include articles in the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, Sociology of Education, Educational Researcher, and the Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness.
