>New session, charter school law still broken?
The Christie administration is preparing to announce a new round of charter schools this week, but a big question remains. What is the state going to do about a charter law that even supporters are calling one of the nation’s weakest?
The latest criticism came from the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools, which in its annual report released yesterday placed New Jersey’s law 31st out of 42nd overall. It cited the lack of strong accountability measures tied to performance, weak funding, and limited approval and review process. (Mooney, NJ Spotlight)
