Challenge and Opportunity: The Impact of Charger Schools on School Districts. A Report of the National Study of Charter Schools.

摘要

This report, Challenge and Opportunity: The Impact of Charter Schools on School Districts, explores the operational and educational changes in districts that administrators attribute to charter schools, and the conditions under which districts tend to make particular changes. Through our extensive fieldwork, the Study has a unique understanding of these particular charter schools and the district context and conditions in which they exist. The work reported here builds on our analysis of the states charter laws and the policy contexts in which they were conceptualized and implemented.
