"Charter School Confidential"

Jay Matthews:

I don't think there is a more important story in this new year of 2006 than what happens to the country's growing charter schools.

But no matter what happens to the federal law, we are going to continue to try to improve schools in this country, one way or another. I would prefer to spend my time looking at the most interesting and encouraging efforts to do so, and that means checking on the charter schools -- independently run public schools -- since they have the most freedom to innovate.
