Charter schools outperform public schools in US, with NY results ‘among the best in the country’: study

Charter schools in the US are significantly outperforming their traditional-public-school peers across the nation — and by particularly large margins in New York City and other urban areas, an extensive new study reveals.

“This is not a fluke,” said Margaret Macke Raymond, director of the prestigious Stanford University Center for Research on Educational Outcomes, which performed the study. “The charter-school sector has improved across the country.

“The New York results are among the best in the country,” she added.

Previous national research from a decade ago showed the learning gap between traditional and charter students was much narrower in reading, with public-school kids actually slightly ahead in math.

Raymond, noting the learning loss experienced by students during the COVID-19 outbreak, said the new study revealing massive strides by charter schools in recent years indicates that elected officials and education policy makers must take a serious look at expanding charter schools or somehow replicating their success.

Back in the 1990's, we had the first charter school open in Duluth and a local liberal radio personality spent the better part of his show ripping on it despite the fact that it had better results than the public schools.

The reason, and only reason, liberals oppose school choice is because the teacher unions tell them to

It's amazing what can be done when parents give a @#$% about education, and teachers and educrats actually maintain a meaningful degree of discipline!
