摘要 | Buy the book. School choice is the most talked about reform of American public education, yet writings about choice remain highly speculative because no state has adopted a free market approach to education — until now. The charter school is fast becoming one of the most significant attempts at public education reform in this country. More than 1,100 charter schools operate in 27 states, with several hundred more to be added in the next two years. “School Choice in the Real World” looks at the charter school movement through a highly focused lens: It examines charter schools in Arizona, which currently account for nearly one-quarter of all charter schools. Since 1994, Arizona has implemented a charter school law with the lowest barriers to entry in the nation. As a result, Arizona has more than 200 charter school campuses. Some districts have even lost more than 10 percent of their students to charter schools. Using the state of Arizona as a case study, the editors examine the experiences of actual charter school operators, social scientific analysis, policy discussions, and criticism and forecasting for the future. The editors bring together academics, policymakers, and practitioners, and they explain and evaluate how school choice works in the real world. Frederick M. Hess is a resident scholar at AEI. |
