The National Center for Education Statistics has introduced a website on State Education Reforms which inventories states' efforts in four key areas: (1) State Support for School Choice Options; (2) School Finance Reforms; (3) Standards, Assessments, and Accountability; and (4) Resources for Learning. Users can access state-by-state details about charter school legislation, charter school reporting requirements and start-up fund characteristics, and charter school teacher certification and student accountability characteristics.
