Enrollment Drop in Detroit District Raises Possibility of More Charter Schools

http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071116/NEWS01/711160338/1003

Charter schools are in demand in Detroit and if district enrollment drops below 100,000 students, a provision in state law will allow Wayne County Community College District and Bay Mills Community College to charter an unlimited number of schools in the city. District enrollment is currently below 105,000.
