Insights...on education policy and practice Number 5 July 1995 Charter Schools: Early Learnings In This Issue The purpose of this Insights is to examine the concerns and difficulties charter shcools are encountering in the early stages of planning and implementation. The empirical research that is beginning to emerge from charter sites in California, Colorado, and Minnesota provides some valuable lessons for policymakers, parents, and educators. The problems are highlighted not in an attempt to derail support for existing charter school policies, but rather to better inform those in the position of shaping and drafting future policies. Comparison Of Charter School Legislation In response to the public's growing frustration with the pace and scope of school improvement, legislators, educators, and parents are increasingly turning to charter schools as the reform of choice. Viewed as a compromise between "throwing" additional dollars at the current system and moving dollars (and students) into the private sector with vouchers, charter schools are popular because they promise relatively cost-free innovation within the boundaries of the public system. Over the last few years, the charter school movement has gained significant momentum in the U.S. In 1991, only one state, Minnesota, had passed charter school legislation. By 1994, a total of eleven states had enacted charter school laws. This year, at least 23 states, including Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas, considered charter school bills and several enacted legislation.1 To date, more than 200 charters have been granted to schools in at least nine states (Walsh, 1995).

Home Charter Schools Background If you are a PTA member and would like additional information about this issue, click here Charter schools are schools that operate under a contract, or charter, with local school boards or other governing agencies. This contract may free charter schools from many of the regulations other schools face. The concept underlying charter schools is that regulations inhibit innovation or creative school reform efforts. The charter school movement has grown from one school in Minnesota in 1992, to almost 3,000 schools in 36 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico in 2003. Iowa, New Hampshire, and Tennessee have charter laws but no charter schools yet. Charter schools enroll approximately half a million children, or less than two percent of the public school population. Despite the rapid adoption of charter school legislation and bipartisan political support, there remains considerable controversy about the quality of and need for charter schools. According to two major studies of the existing research on charter schools, the evidence on charter school achievement is mixed.

Cobb University of New Hampshire Gene V Glass Arizona State University [The editorial review and decisions on this article were the responsibility of Anthony G. Rud Jr. of the Editorial Board Abstract Among the criticisms of charter schools is their potential to further stratify schools along ethnic and class lines. This study addressed whether Arizona charter schools are more ethnically segregated than traditional public schools. In 1996-97, Arizona had nearly one in four of all charter schools in the United States. The analysis involved a series of comparisons between the ethnic compositions of adjacent charter and public schools in Arizona's most populated region and its rural towns. This methodology differed from the approach of many evaluations of charter schools and ethnic stratification in that it incorporated the use of geographic maps to compare schools' ethnic make-ups. The ethnic compositions of 55 urban and 57 rural charter schools were inspected relative to their traditional public school neighbors.

Colorado Charter Schools Aren’t Perfect, but They Get the Job Done Colorado Springs Gazette April 4, 2000 by Robert Holland A recent report from the U.S. Department of Education documented the phenomenal growth of charter schools, while a state-level study done in Colorado was showing how these quasi-independent schools can work at their best. In its fourth-year report on charter schools, The State of Charter Schools 2000, DoEd reported that 421 charter schools opened in the 12 months before September 1999 a 40 percent jump, the most brisk increase yet. In all, more than 1,700 charter schools have come into existence since 1991, and they serve a quarter of a million students. Thirty-seven states and the District of Columbia have passed charter laws. In fact, with 4.4 percent of its students in charter schools the highest percentage in the country the District is one of the places where charters have especially thrived as parents seek alternatives to inadequate government schools. According to the report, 58 percent of charter founders said they wished to "realize an alternative vision of education," while 23 percent aspired to serving a special population of children, such as those considered "at risk."
