5 reasons I believe my claim to be true:
1) Studies show a higher number of kids leaving charter high school and going onto college than the number of kids leaving public high school and going onto college.
2) Studies show a higher number of children from charter schools graduating a four year university than those from public schools.
3) Charter schools have more freedom with their curriculum so they are able to focus more on college prep than those public schools that are trying to just meet state standards.
4) The families in charter schools are there because they want to be and they chose to be there. This results in them working harder to do well and excel.
5) Charter schools are working with children that are pretty much on the same level academically. Children in public schools range from special needs to above average. There is a balancing act that takes place so these schools can accommodate all of their students and often times the children that above average academically will get held down to the level of their peers.
