WHAT’S BEHIND CHARTER SCHOOL TEST SCORES?

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 17, 2004 01:58 PM

Aaron at Untergeek ruminates on the New York Times‘ story about charter school test scores. I agree that there may be a selection thing going on. Kimberly Swygert is away from the office, but I’ll be interested in her take when she gets back. Also want to hear what charter school expert and edublogger extraordinaire Joanne Jacobs thinks.

The Center for Education Reform weighs in here.

Update: Joanne Jacobs comments here. Eduwonk has analysis here. Red Line Rants has more.

Update II: Researchers from Harvard and the Hoover Institution take on the American Federation of Teachers’ “dishonest study.
