Connecticut has NO usable private school choice program. TOWN TUITIONING QUESTION ANSWERED: CT does have a narrow Vermont/Maine-like mechanism under CGS 10-34 - a town without its own high school may designate a private incorporated or endowed academy as its public high school and pay tuition - BUT the statute explicitly requires the academy to be NONRELIGIOUS, and only three secular academies operate this way (Gilbert School/Winchester, Norwich Free Academy, Woodstock Academy), each serving specific named towns. There is no religious-school pathway, so this is a dead end for this client. Otherwise CT offers only charters, magnets, Open Choice inter-district transfer and homeschooling. Gov. Lamont has called federal ECCA participation 'premature.' Statute source: https://www.cga.ct.gov/2016/rpt/2016-R-0155.htm
