q2 i? Charter elementary students register reading surpluses of 47 additional days and charter middle school students outperform TPS VCRs in reading by 53 extra days; math growth is not statistically different for elementary and middle schools. → Charter School Performance in New Mexico 2019 q2 i? Students in high and multi-level charter schools grow similarly to their TPS VCRs in both reading and math. → Charter School Performance in New Mexico 2019 (2)

Evidence¶

Charter School Performance in New Mexico 2019¶

Charter School Performance in New Mexico. (2019). Center for Research on Education Outcomes, Stanford University. https://credo.stanford.edu/reports/item/charter-school-performance-in-new-mexico-2/

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Matched VCR analysis by school grade configuration (Figure 9), using NCES elementary/middle/high/multi-level designations; reading surpluses reported in days of learning, math null.

"charter elementary school students register learning surpluses in reading equivalent to 47 additional days of learning; charter middle school students outperform their TPS VCRs in reading by 53 extra days of learning. The math growth of students attending charter elementary and middle schools is not statistically different from that of their peers in TPS."

Charter School Performance in New Mexico 2019 (2)¶

Charter School Performance in New Mexico. (2019). Center for Research on Education Outcomes, Stanford University. https://credo.stanford.edu/reports/item/charter-school-performance-in-new-mexico-2/

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Same grade-configuration analysis (Figure 9): high school and multi-level charter students' growth is not statistically different from TPS VCRs in either subject.

"Students in high and multi-level charter school grow similarly to their TPS VCRs in both reading and math."
