Charter Schools

Charter Schools In Perspective A Guide to Research 5

What is a charter school?

Charter schools are publicly funded schools that are created and operated by organizations other
than local school districts. Here are some other defining characteristics of charter schools:

Who can attend them?

Charters provide a free education and, like other public schools, cannot discriminate by race,
gender, religion or disability.

Charter schools are meant to have open admission policies; any eligible public school
student can attend a charter school. In this way, charter schools are not like private schools,
which can accept or reject students based on their test scores, student and family interviews,
religious affiliation, ability to pay tuition or general fit with the schools mission. In practice,
many charter schools have a lottery system for admission owing to their popularity, meaning
that not all children can find their way into a charter school.

Who opens and operates them?

In 201617, about two-thirds of charter schools were stand-alone schools created and
operated by groups or organizations such as groups of teachers, community groups, univer-
sities, foundations, businesses or faith-based groups.1

In 201617, about one-third of charter schools were created and operated by management
organizations that operate multiple schools. These organizations can be nonprofit or
for-profit.2

How are they governed?

Charter schools are so named because they operate under the conditions of a legally binding
contract called a charter. A schools charter is issued to an operator by a governing body or
authorizer.

Charter school authorizers vary from state to state and even within states.

A schools charter typically exempts the school from select state and district rules and
regulations. For example, a charter may mandate a longer school year for students. It may
exempt a school from having to hire certified teachers. These rules vary depending on the
schools contract as well as the charter legislation of the charter schools state.

In exchange for this flexibility, charter schools are held accountable to standards laid out in
their charters.

A schools charter is reviewed regularly, typically every three to five years, by the charter
school authorizer. If the school fails to meet the standards outlined in its charter, the charter
is not renewed and the school is closed. For more information on closures, see the
Governance and Regulation section.

Charter Schools In Perspective A Guide to Research6

Are charter schools public schools?
Charter schools are classified as public schools by the U.S. Department of Education. They

receive public money, offer a free education and are held to the same nondiscrimination
standards as traditional public schools.

However, charter schools have been extremely controversial in some communities. Critics
have often argued that charter schools do not sufficiently account for the public money they
receive, produce insufficient student performance data and are a threat to traditional public
schools.

Where did charter schools come from?

Charter schools were originally conceptualized by Ray Budde, a former teacher and principal,
in 1974.3

The concept caught on in the 1980s, when A Nation at Risk, the landmark 1983 study from
President Ronald Reagans National Commission on Excellence in Education, and other
education reports questioned the quality of American public schools.

Albert Shanker, who was then the president of the American Federation of Teachers, one of
the two major national teachers unions, brought the charter school concept to a broader
audience when he endorsed charter schools during a speech in 1988 at the National Press
Club in Washington, D.C.4

The first law allowing the establishment of charter schools was passed in Minnesota in 1991,
and the first charter school opened in that state in 1992.5

Some advocates view charter schools as one avenue for providing choices to parents seeking
a better education for their children. Note that charter schools are different from other
school choice programs such as vouchers and magnet schools.

Vouchers enable children in the public school system to attend a private school of their
choice, whereas magnet schools are public schools with a special theme or curriculum.

Magnet schools are created by traditional school districts and are designed to attract and
enroll students from outside the normal attendance zone, and sometimes from other school
districts, often with the goal of increasing racial integration.

How many charter schools are there in the United States?

As of January 2018, laws allowing the creation of charter schools have been passed in
44 statesplus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam.6

The most recent data released by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), a part of
the U.S. Department of Education, estimate that there were 6,747 charter schools in the United
States in 201415 and 6,855 in 201516.7 The proportion of charter schools to all public schools
was 7 percent in the 201516 school year, an increase from the 200001 school year when the
proportion of charter schools to all public schools was 2 percent.8 When more current data are
released, they can be found on the NCES website. The following chart illustrates the growth in
charter schools over time.

How many students attend charters?

According to the NCES, more than 2.8 million students attended charter schools in 201516,
meaning that charter school students accounted for approximately 6 percent of all public
school students.9 Student enrollment in charter schools grew more than 70 percent from
200910 to 201516.10 The following chart illustrates the growth in charter school enrollment
over time.

What are the demographics of charter school students?

Charter schools nationwide tend to enroll a larger proportion of black students and students
living in poverty than do traditional public schools nationwide.11 Charter schools nationwide
tend to enroll a similar proportion of English-language learners and special education students
as do traditional public schools nationwide.12 However, these demographics vary from school to
school and district to district. The demographic picture becomes even more complex when
comparing charter school students demographics with those of their peers in nearby tradi-
tional public schools.

The NCES also has data on the percentage of children at charters and traditional public schools
during the 201516 school year who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, a common way
of identifying low-income students. At 33 percent of charter schools, more than 75 percent of
students are eligible for the free or reduced-pricelunch program. By contrast, at 24 percent of
traditional public schools, more than 75 percent of students are eligible for the free or reduced-
pricelunch program.13

In 2013, the Center for Research on Education Outcomes (CREDO) study from Stanford
University compared charter school and traditional public school populations in 27 states. In
2017, CREDO published an update in which they collected data for 3.7 million students across
26 states. The study includes data from traditional public schools, charter schools and what
they call feeder schoolsthe traditional public schools from which local charter schools draw
their student populations.14

A comparison of charter schools with all traditional public schools in these 26 states indicates
that charter schools do serve a slightly higher proportion of low-income students. However, a
comparison of charter schools with just the traditional public schools that their student
population comes fromthe feeder schoolsshows that the proportion of low-income
students is the same.

The following graphs illustrate these and other demographic characteristics of charter school
students and traditional public school students, including the percentage of students who are
English-language learners or who are in special education programs. For more information on
charter students demographics, see the Diversity section.

Where are charter schools located?

Minnesota was the first state to pass a law allowing the establishment of charter schools, in
1991. The first charter school opened in 1992. As of January 2018, laws allowing the creation of
charter schools have been passed in 44 statesplus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and
Guam.15 Despite legislative approval in Alabama and Kentucky, according to the National
Alliance for Public Charter Schools (NAPCS), no charter schools were operational in those
states in 201617.16 NAPCS calls itself the leading national nonprofit organization committed
to advancing the quality, growth, and sustainability of charter schools. In 2018, legislation
allowing charter schools had not been passed in Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Vermont or West Virginia.17

Charter schools are much more heavily concentrated in some states than others, and the
proportion of charter schools to traditional public schools also varies from state to state and
district to district. According to the NAPCS, California has the most charter schools, with 1,224
schools in the 201516 school year, which may account for the high percentage of charters
located in the western region of the country. In 201516, Texas came in second, with 702
schools.20

If treated as comparable to a state, the city of Washington, D.C., has the highest proportion of
charter schools, at 49 percent of all public schools in 201516.21 Despite this, Washington, D.C.,
wouldnt make the top five list among U.S. cities in terms of charter school student population.
New Orleans is the city where charter schools serve the highest percentage of students:
93 percent of New Orleans public school students attended charter schools in 201617. Flint
