Creaming versus Cropping: Charter School Enrollment Practices in Response to Market Incentives.
Lacireno-Paquet, Natalie; Holyoke, Thomas T.; Moser, Michele; Henig, Jeffrey R.
Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, v24 n2 p145-58 Sum 2002
Compared student composition in market-oriented charter schools, nonmarket-oriented charter schools, and traditional public schools in Washington, D.C. (30 charter schools; 147 traditional schools). Found little evidence that market-oriented schools focus on an elite clientele, but they are less likely than the other two types of schools to serve some high need populations. (SLD)
