Getting results from charter schools

I'm pretty passionate about getting good results from charter schools, so I thought I'd pass along this article about what the University of Western Michigan is doing to get positive results from its charter schools.

12 schools, and a pretty good record. It's probably worth a read.

Thank you for the link. One note: The charter school authorizer in the article is the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, not the University of Western Michigan. Western Michigan University does not currently authorize any charter schools.

I'm reading the report from this article. Thanks for sharing. To give proper credit, the link refers to University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee...not University of Western Michigan.

Thanks. Funny. I thought I had gone back and checked that before posting. I thought there was something about Kalamazoo, but perhaps I read what I wanted to read. ??? It shall remain a mystery, but thanks for correcting me.
