Charter Schools Give Students a Boost
Students who attended a charter middle school and then went to a charter high school were 7 to 15 percentage points more likely to earn a standard diploma and 8 to 10 percentage points more likely to attend college than students who went from the charter middle school to a traditional public high school, according to a study in two U.S. states led by Kevin Booker of Mathematica Policy Research. The reasons for the differences are unclear, but expanding school choices may help promote college attendance, the researchers say.
