Abstract: This new study from the National Charter School Research Project (NCSRP) finds that urban public charter schools appear to be safer and experience fewer discipline problems than their traditional public school counterparts. Analyzing data from the 2003-04 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS), the author finds that charter schools consistently reported significantly fewer threats to persons or property and fewer behavioral problems than traditional public schools.
