Rhim, Lauren Morando – Center for Learner Equity, 2021
Charter schools' autonomy and flexibility provides them with the opportunity to find ways to close the performance gap between students with and without disabilities, but deep-seated, systemic challenges often cause individual charters to struggle to do so on their own. For cities with an established charter sector, a city-wide, collaborative…

Seifert, Sophia; Porter, Lorna; Cordes, Sarah A.; Wohlstetter, Priscilla – Teachers College Record, 2022
Background: In the United States, students' experiences are shaped by racioethnic, socioeconomic, and linguistic segregation.

Counter to this trend, hundreds of intentionally diverse charter schools (IDCS), with a mission to promote school…

Morita-Mullaney, Trish; Chesnut, Colleen – NABE Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Indiana dual-language immersion (DLI) programs have grown exponentially in the last 5 years as a result of state policies, related state funding, and increasing pressure for public schools to have a specialized presence amidst school choice provisions. Principals work with their communities to identify the DLI model they will adopt, student…

Murnane, Richard J. – William T. Grant Foundation, 2021
Among the many troubling legacies of centuries of slavery and discrimination in the United States are extraordinary race-based inequalities in life chances. Black children grow up in families with much lower income and wealth, on average, than White children. They are more likely than White children to live in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty…

Maire, Quentin – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2022
The internationalisation of educational trajectories has emerged as a new form of cultural capital in education systems. Research suggests that the 'international capital' offered by language enrichment programs has become appropriated primarily by middle- and upper-class families investing in new forms of educational distinction. However, little…

Domanico, Ray – Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, 2022
New York State's system of public elementary and secondary schools is in steep decline, but it is salvageable. The roots of its problems pre-date the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, but the system's response to that challenge accelerated discontent with the schools and harmed students. The damage of those years will not be undone if…

McShane, Michael Q. – EdChoice, 2021
In almost any conversation about accountability for private schools, accountability for public schools is assumed. This is a dangerous myth. By assuming that the edifice that states and the federal government have created over the past several decades actually holds schools accountable, school choice advocates immediately find themselves in an…

Cordes, Sarah A.; Rick, Christopher; Schwartz, Amy Ellen – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2021
School buses may be a critical education policy lever, breaking the link between schools and neighborhoods and facilitating access to school choice. Yet little is known about the commute for bus riders, including the average length of the bus ride or whether long commutes harm academic outcomes. We begin to fill this gap using data from New York…

Domanico, Ray – Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, 2023
In New York State, private and religious schools are required to offer a curriculum "substantially equivalent" to what is available in local public schools. Substantial equivalency--which has been law for nearly 130 years--allows parents to direct the education of their children by enrolling them in the school of their choice, while also…

Harris, Heidi Alene – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
Despite credible research to support a constructivist-based approach in early childhood programs, policymakers continued to push for a more academic-based philosophy in an effort to reach standardized testing goals. Reggio Emilia, a constructivist-based early childhood philosophy that originated in Northern Italy, has been shown to be an excellent…
