Charter
School Position Update Study
Summary of Study
At
the 2013 LWVIL state convention, delegates approved updating the 2001 Charter
Schools Position during the 2013-2015 biennium, in light of new developments.
This study does not attempt to resolve the issue of whether charter schools or
traditional public schools achieve better student outcomes or offer more to
families. Rather, the primary question guiding this study is whether steps
should be taken to tighten the school code so that such problems do not
continue to arise.
