This is a book about ethnocentric niche charter schools. What are
they? When did they first appear? From where did the term come? How
do they differ from regular charter schools and from district-run
traditional public schools? Each subject chapter was created by a
team consisting of at least one educational researcher and at least
one charter school practitioner. The goal is to make the book
readable for everyone (policymakers, parents, teachers, older
students) while providing a framework of rigor from which to view
each charter school. Hence: the teams. We took special pains to
create a book which exhibits the objectivity of the educational
researcher while, at the same time, inviting the reader into each
school by painting a human picture of its ethos. Each chapter
contains a description of the school told by people who actually
taught or learned or sent their children there.
