Why some D.C. charters have more white kids - The Washington Post

www.washingtonpost.com
charter
"The data show that, on average, schools with significant numbers of middle class students have higher achievement levels. But several D.C. charter schools with no or few middle class students do just as well. It might be best to study how they accomplish that, with well-trained and supported principals and teachers, since it is unlikely that there will ever be enough middle class kids to please everyone."

assessment
"On average, charter schools in Arizona do no better, and sometimes worse, than the traditional public schools. Figure 1 shows our estimates of the average impact of attending a charter school on test scores, expressed in standard deviation units. To put these units in context, the average middle school student gains about a quarter of a standard deviation per year; for elementary students, the average gain is between a third and a half of a standard deviation. For example, the negative impact of charter middle schools on math scores of 0.02 standard deviations translates into about 10 percent of a year of learning."
