Devil's Advocate 🙋 They only reference 1 study at pro-charter and the other study reference was just about funding. Also Reason is a known libertarian publication so they'll want to skew things to discredit public education. US Parents need to perform due diligence for what's best for their kid; one doesn't fit all

Do you think the reduced special edu students are a factor in higher test scores? 🤔 https://traue.commons.gc.cuny.edu/issue-2-fall-2013/torre/ https://www.edweek.org/policy-politics/charter-schools-now-outperform-traditional-public-schools-sweeping-study-finds/2023/06

good question i don’t know much about the distribution of special ed kids and whether they are included in these studies. i’m sure it depends on the sample chosen in each research paper. so i can’t say ive analyzed them all with that in mind.
