That's why I said self selection. Poorer and higher needs kids don't tend to end up in the lottery in the first place, for a host of reasons. And as malcolmk14 said, often the ones that do get in are weeded out eventually.
Look at the province's own data. The socioeconomic profile of charter schools students is completely different than public schools.
