Charter School Facilities Initiative, 2013
The Rhode Island League of Charter Schools, the Colorado League of Charter Schools, and the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools publish this report, entitled “An Analysis of the Charter School Facilities Landscape in Rhode Island,” detailing the status of charter school facilities in the state.
In winter of 2013, the above organizations worked to collect evidence that would accurately portray both the adequacy of charter school facilities1 and the average amount of operating funds spent by charter schools on facilities. Collectively, the results described in this report provide evidence that charter school students in Rhode Island do not have access to the same sized facilities, facilities amenities and/or funding compared to traditional public school students in the state.
