As we approach the end of summer and grapple with what school will look like in the Fall and beyond, we thought it prudent to examine the differences between charter schools and traditional public schools.
Our Host and Chairman Earl Wright welcomes CSI Education Fellow Dr. Brenda Bautsch Dickhoner and Dan Schaller, President of the Colorado League of Charter Schools. Topics covered include how Colorado charter high school graduation rates compare to non-charter high schools, and how charter schools may have closed the education gap with students of color. You can find further information on these topics and more in Brenda’s latest report: Digging Into the Data on Charter Schools: An In-Depth Look at Graduation Rates.
