Scant information exists regarding the status of students with disabilities in the charter sector. With the release of the most recent U.S. Department of Education's Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), the National Center for Special Education in Charter Schools (NCSECS) embraced the opportunity to examine these issues across the universe of states with charter schools. In conducting the analysis, the authors sought to provide policymakers and stakeholders with a more robust comparison between traditional public schools and charter schools regarding key data points. The aim in making the comparisons is to leverage data to inform the ongoing dialogue related to access and provision of services to students with disabilities in the growing charter sector. While it raises important questions that need to be explored in future analyses, this ground breaking research is a significant step forward for the field. This report includes federal, state, and local-level policy recommendations. [For the Executive Summary, see ED608565.]
