Charter Schools: A Case Study

According to the author, giving public funds to private groups leads to a series of issues. The first issue is that changes are being made in order to seem like the charter school's are meeting the standards and students are meeting the expected goals.

Shober, Manna, & Witte (2006), examines how state policy makers incorporated flexibility and accountability into state charter school laws supplementing a particular database with others measures to answer two specific questions. (1) What factors influence the degree of flexibility and accountability in state charter schools laws? And (2) how does the content of state charter schools laws, and the different values those laws embrace, affect the formation of charter schools in the United States? In state charter school laws, it is shown that state political and contextual factors help account for the degree of flexibility, but not accountability. Therefore, it was suggested that an increase in changes in charter laws show favor reducing accountability

Social, cultural, and political variables impact the lives of our children, including their development. One explores the socio-political reality of the Charter School Act of 1998 to our society. There are unwavering viewpoints in favor and staunch positions against the Act. The Charter School Act of 1998 created an antagonistic war of words concerning the direction of public education.

After reading this article I am not a fan of charter schools, I think they are run by selfish people who only worry about their income. The schools have a different way of teaching.

Charter schools have an interesting history with origins that are most often overlooked. Since the enactment of the first charter school legislation in Minnesota in 1991, charter schools have grown rapidly to over 6,000 in forty-two (42) states and the District of Columbia (Karp & Heitner, 2013; CREDO, 2013). Originally, charter schools were teacher-operated schools serving students struggling inside the traditional system (Karp & Heitner, 2013). Accordingly, charter schools were established to operate outside the reach of administrative bureaucracy and politicization among many city school boards (Karp & Heitner, 2013).

There is a growing desire to establish additional charter schools in the state of Mississippi. Mississippi legislators are adamant about providing parents and students more choice. The debate over school choice has existed for years and there seems to be no end in sight. Proponents of charter schools believe parents should have freedom of choice in educating their children. They argue that all students deserve a quality education as outlined in the U.S. Constitution. Moreover, they contend that some communities have failing public schools that deprive students of a quality education. On the other hand, critics of charter schools believe they tend to discriminate against students in terms of race and religious background. There is growing concern

There are academic tutoring services in many African American urban schools across the country, along with districts that tailor their curriculum to fit the students. (Chapman, 2010, pp.651-654) Charter schools also offer a curriculum formatted toward the students and have more freedom from the bureaucratic echelon. There are only a small handful that have the same ideology or format as the Chicago study. The Chicago study gave students the benefits of learning social and business skills through BAM (Becoming A Man), a Youth Guidance program. This program is based on the premise that many urban youths lack general skills because they have not had a positive role model to guide them. Hence, the BAM program offers role models that are

Charter schools are unique public schools that are allowed the freedom to be more innovative while being held accountable for advancing student achievement (what is a charter school 2017). Because they are public schools, they are open to all children; do not charge tuition; and do not have special entrance requirements. The core of the charter school model is the belief that public schools should be held accountable for student learning (what is a charter school 2017). In exchange for this accountability, school leaders should be given freedom to do whatever it takes to help students achieve and should share what works with the broader public school system so that all students benefit (what is a charter school

So what is a charter school? A charter school is a school where it is being funded by organizations, groups, teachers etc. And they are exempt from local rules and regulations. Some parents want their children to go to charter schools because of how successful charter schools have been with students who succeed in their academics. The thing is that you either have to test into that charter school or get picked by a lottery system. There is another side where some think that charter schools are not beneficial in ways that could jeopardize the community and their students. There are a lot of public schools but at the same time there are a number of charter schools that are growing. There are many reasons public schools could be great, and better

The American education system and its public institutions are slowly changing. What used to be a public institution is pushed to be a “publicly funded, but privately managed” system, also known as charter schools. The problem with charter schools development is due to the lack of enforcement is the results of insufficient measure of transparency and accountability. Due to the lack of oversight the public have over charter schools, this leads to many cases of fraud and abuse and no guarantee of academic advancement. Examples could be found in the lack of coherent data on the improvement of students performance, and case of fraud, both financially and academically, in many charter schools all over the nations. This overdue dispute raises concerning questions of what is the right and satisfying solution for the issue and how to guide state legislators and communities toward public accountability and transparency for charter schools.
