Critics, on the other hand, believe that vouchers undermine the public school system by diverting revenues. This year, voters in at least two states, California and Michigan, are likely to vote on proposals establishing voucher programs. The campaigns on that issue promise to be bitter and expensive. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has not yet spoken clearly on the constitutionality of voucher programs. Charter schools, on the other hand, enjoy broad political support. Charters are schools supported with public funding but freed from most government regulation. Both political parties endorse expanding charters beyond the 1,700 schools currently in operation. But little is known about their effect on student learning. The first charter schools were founded in the early 1990s. As the schoolsÂ’ contracts come up for renewal, scholars are learning more about their effectiveness, as well as the challenges remaining.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC In seven short years, the U.S. charter-school movement has produced about 800 schools in 29 states and the District of Columbia, enrolling over 100,000 students. Charter schools reflect their founders' varied philosophies, programs, and organizational structures, serve diverse student populations, and are committed to improving public education. Charter schools are freed of many restrictive rules and regulations. In return, these schools are expected to achieve educational outcomes within a certain period (usually three to five years) or have their charters revoked by sponsors (a local school board, state education agency, or university).
