Most New Orleans charter schools are improving student performance at a faster rate than traditional schools, according to Stanford’s Center for Research on Education Outcomes (CREDO). The study matched charter students to “virtual twins” in race, socioeconomic background and previous test scores at district-run schools.
New Schools for New Orleans, a nonprofit, commissioned the study to help decide which charter organizations will get some of the $28 million in federal grant money for new school start-ups.
Of 44 independent charter schools, 23 were improving at a significantly faster rate in reading, math or both than other New Orleans schools. Twelve charters were doing about the same. Nine showed slower progress; three of those have turned in their charters.
