The Education Commission of the States has updated its charter schools state policies database. Data is available on school/student preferences, caps, authorizers/sponsors, appeals processes, funding, start-up grants, facilities funding and assistance, waivers, teacher certification, and collective bargaining agreements. Users can generate profiles of the state policies for charter schools in individual states, create comparisons of specific types of state policies for charter schools across several states and view predetermined reports on state policies for charter schools.
