Using a randomized trial, we evaluate the impact of a free privately-managedmiddle school in a poor neighborhood. The research compares over timeadolescents randomly selected to enter Liceo-Jubilar and those that were notdrawn in the lottery. Besides positive impacts on expectations, we find bettereducational outcomes in the treatment group relative to control subjects. Thefeatures of Liceo-Jubilar -autonomy of management, capacity for innovation, andadaptation to the context- contrast with the Uruguayan highly centralized andinflexible public education system. Our results shed light on new approaches toeducation that may contribute to improve opportunities for disadvantagedadolescents in developing countries. Unlike the experiences of charter schools indeveloped countries, Liceo-Jubilar does not have autonomy regarding the formalschool curricula nor depends on public funding by any means.
