Learn more about specific charter school programs. Information in each profile above is self-reported and based on a program survey completed by one or two school staff members. (In most cases, one of these individuals was the principal or head of school.) Additional school profiles are available through the Handbook of Charter High Schools: Learning in a Real-World Context. See the Resources section of this Web site to order.

Each profile above is organized around six key topics:

  • Formation dynamics.
  • Core educational philosophy and intended outcomes.
  • Groups and prominent decision makers involved in planning and operating the school.
  • Curriculum and instructional methods.
  • Real-world practices.
  • Issues and challenges encountered and how the school dealt with them.
