Report: Charter schools outperform public schools

The Center for Education Reform has released "The Accountability Report: Charter Schools," showing that charter schools outperform public schools in most categories.

Despite massive opposition by the public education/teachers union lobbies, charter schools are celebrating their 18th anniversary this year.

"Accountability lies at the heart of the charter school concept," says Jeanne Allen, president of the Center for Education Reform. "The singular focus on student achievement challenges all public schools to raise the bar. Knowing how charter schools are held accountable is a guidepost for all engaged in educating our nation's youth."
