Charter school high school students in the city of Chicago had higher attendance and test scores compared to students in non-charter high schools, according to a new study by the University of Chicago (U. of C.) Consortium on School Research.

Additionally, the U. of C. Consortium wrote that “rates of four-year college enrollment and enrollment in more selective colleges were higher, on average, for students at charter schools than similar students at non-charter high schools.”
