Charter Schools Closing The Gap?

The video seen in this blog is from the Florida Charter School Consortium, and it makes a great case for charter schools. Of course, being a teacher in a charter school, I can attest that a charter school has its advantages and disadvantages. The claim that charter schools have been raising the scores of hispanic students may be true, however there is no evidence on the fldoe.org website or on the consortium website that substantiates this claim. It's a nice promo for charter schools.
