No, it’s meaningless because cars in both categories vary widely. The same applies to district and charters. We should be learning from district and charters whose students make significant progress – and not just on tests.<br /><br />In this sense, the CREDO study is also meaningless and there's no sense giving credence to it's claim that charters are "making progress" when comparing them as a group to traditional public schools, based on test scores.
