Charter Schools Falling 2021-2022: Enrollment in Charter Schools Declines. An NPE Analysis
Burris, Carol
Network for Public Education
Demand for charter schools is declining. In sixteen of the forty-one states that have published 2021-2022 enrollment numbers, charter school enrollment has dropped, in some cases, by substantial amounts. In an additional six states, charter enrollment has stalled with increases of fewer than 200 students in charter schools across the state. Using the 2020-2021 charter enrollment numbers provided by the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools (NAPCS) as the comparison year, this report analyzes charter enrollment data for each state. Data were available, from each state's education department websites, publications or via email or phone contact, for 41 of the 43 states operating charter schools and the District of Columbia. Two states, Tennessee and Washington, were not included because they have not publicly released enrollment data as yet.
