Sponsored Resources : Computer Training Schools School Choice in Florida: An Overview of Your Options Charter schools, magnet schools, and interdistrict and intradistrict transfers are some of the ways to choose a public school for your child. Start here to learn about your options. Click here to read this article in Spanish. By GreatSchools.net Staff If you're like most parents, you've probably heard some talk about school choice, but aren't quite sure how it applies to your child. What are your options? What are your rights? And how do you figure out what the best choice is for your child? This guide will introduce you to the possibilities. School choice is a relatively new concept in most states. During the past several years, the options available to parents have increased dramatically, in response to a growing national sentiment that promoting competition in public education may spur schools to improve. Choice advocates believe that if schools operate on the free-market rules that govern the business world, the result will be better schools that respond to parents' needs and concerns.

If one in eight Ford Tauruses failed to operate, Taurus would quickly lose its reputation for quality and its popularity with the public. According to tenets of Total Quality Management, if Ford tried to focus blame on individual workers rather than improve systemwide quality, the problem would most likely persist, public and stockholder confidence would deteriorate, and the company might soon be bankrupt. One in eight students does not complete high school. Minorities, the poor, and the disabled often fare worse. Over 50 percent of students in a quarter of the nation's poor, urban high schools fail to graduate. Suspension, expulsion, retention, chronic failure, and alienation all contribute to unacceptable dropout and incompletion rates. Yet rather than take a systems approach to improvement, many states have created alternative schools for the "problem" individuals thought to degrade general education quality. Alternative schools evolved decades ago to provide an academic option for students not successful in regular education programs

    Why School Choice? Failing Urban Schools
    School choice supporters have voiced growing alarm with persistent and unacceptably low levels of academic achievement by students in urban schools. These concerns were a major factor leading to enactment of voucher plans in Milwaukee, Cleveland and Florida.
    Cleveland, OH
    Cleveland Ohio's largest newspaper described this situation in Cleveland: "Cleveland scored the lowest of any school district in Ohio on the latest state report card, failing to meet a single one of 27 standards for student performance. The district was one of 69 around the state. . . declared to be in a state of 'academic emergency. '" "Cleveland Schools Score Lowest in State," The Plain Dealer, December 23, 1999. A recent study publicized Cleveland's 28% graduation rate for 1998, the worst among the 50 largest school districts in the United States. All of the city's racial and ethnic groups exhibited such low rates, including only 26% for Latino students, 29% for African American students, and 23% for white students.

Cincinnati K-8s show improvement Data on attendance, suspensions and tests. Web extra: DeRolph Ruling As many as 14 percent of Cleveland’s 17,000 middle school students are likely to be at least two years older than their classmates. School officials say these 15- to 17-year-olds often crowd the schools and spell trouble for teachers and the 11- to 14-year-olds seated next to them. Cleveland Municipal Schools will address the issue of overage students this fall by opening two schools for 500 6th-graders who are 15 years old. At the schools, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Charles Orr, students can complete 6th, 7th and 8th grade in three years or less.
