Charter Schools: An Approach for Rural Education? ERIC Digest
WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED ABOUT CHARTER SCHOOLS In some ways, charter schools are traditional and tap historic rural roots of public education
They give parents, students, and educators public school alternatives based on the idea that competition will bring educational innovations (Thomas, 1996)
But there is potential for controversy, especially in poor rural communities with limited financial and educational resources to support additional schools
The Center for Education Reform (1998) estimated 1, 129 charter schools existed nationwide in September 1998
The charter sponsor may be a school district, college or university, state education agency, teachers, parents, or other community members (Molnar, 1996)
Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory (1997) says charter schools offer autonomy in exchange for accountability
Schools receive freedom and a limited time (often five years) to experiment with organization, curriculum, and other aspects of the school (also see California Department of Education, 1992, and Harrington-Lueker, 1994)
