Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents and analyzes data from the 2004-05 school year related to the characteristics of charter schools in Colorado, including student achievement and school performance. The purpose, methodology and growth of charter schools in the state is discussed, followed by an overview of the background and mandates of the Colorado Charter School Act. Characteristics of charter school, charter school students are reported, followed by charter school performance, by reading, writing, math, science assessments. Information on teachers, salaries, administrators and oversight is included. Renewals and closures, and operational issues are presented. A summary and look ahead is included: charter schools are anticipated to continue as part of the educational landscape, with a range of opinion regarding acceptance as part of the educational mainstream, and potential organizational changes. Recommendations are clustered into three categories: (1) System recommendations, for the state legislators and educational system as a whole, include creating university programs for charter school leaders, providing competitive wages in the charter system, and implementation and funding for on-the-job charter training; (2) Authorizer recommendations for school districts include development of and training in best practices with potential networking between districts, more information from and collaboration with District Assessment Coordinators (DAC), possible standardization of calendars and reports, and clarification of fee schedules; and (3) Individual school recommendations reiterate the need to work with DACs, fee schedules, consistency of record keeping, and of balancing selectivity versus moving forward. Evaluation study request for data is appended. (Contains 95 endnotes and 31 tables.).

This book was released on 2004-05-13 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charter schools are among the most debated and least understood phenomena in American education today. At the heart of these matters is a contested question of accountability. To survive, charter schools must make and keep promises about what students will experience and learn under their purview. However, unlike public schools, charter schools do not rely exclusively on their relationship with school districts. They must also look to parents, teachers, and donors to cooperatively establish expectations of a particular school and its mission. Aimed toward elected officials, school reform activists, and educators, this book is the result of the first national-scale study of charter school accountability. The authors researched one hundred-fifty schools and sixty authorizing agencies in Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Michigan. These states contain the majority of charter schools that have been operating for three years or more and represent the major differences in state charter school legislation. The authors include interviews from a range of participants in the field©¡from state legislators and administrators to principals, teachers, and parents. In assessing the structure of accountability as it works internally to bolster external confidence, Hill and Lake suggest the struggle of charter schools actually complements those of standards based reform. Both seek to transform public education to make schools responsible for performance, not compliance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As charter schools enter their third decade, research in this key sector remains overwhelmingly contradictory and confused. Many studies are narrowly focused; some do not meet the standards for high-quality academic research. In this definitive work, Wohlstetter and her colleagues isolate and distill the high-quality research on charter schools to identify the contextual and operational factors that influence these schools’ performances. The authors examine the track record of the charter sector in light of the wide range of goals set for these schools in state authorizing legislation—at the classroom level, the level of the school community, and system-wide. In particular, they show how the evolution of the charter movement has shaped research questions and findings. By highlighting what we know about the conditions for success in charter schools, the authors make a significant contribution to current debates in policy and practice, both within the charter sector and in the larger landscape of public education.
