Colorado charter schools enroll fewer kids with disabilities
June 13th, 2009From the Denver Post:
Colorado state data shows that the state’s charter school enroll fewer students with disabilities on average than non-charter schools. Critics have long contended that charters skim off the highest-performing students, excluding those with more complex needs.
Data from the current school year shows 9.7 percent of the state’s students have disabilities, as compared with 6.9 percent of those enrolled in charter schools.
