Study: College More Likely for Charter Students
Students who attend charter high schools are substantially more likely to graduate and go on to college than students who attend traditional public schools, a new study of Chicago schools found.
The study, the latest segment in a nationwide examination of charter schools by a nonprofit policy group, the RAND Corporation, is one of the brighter pictures of charter schools that researchers have yet provided.
The Rand Corporation has issued this report on EdNews.org: Charter School Students in Chicago Enjoy Better Graduation, College Entry Rates. The study can be found here.
