Charter-Granting Agencies: The Challenges of Oversight in a Deregulated System.

Hassel, Bryan C.; Vergari, Sandra

Education and Urban Society, v31 n4 p406-28 Aug 1999

Analyzed information from 14 charter-granting agencies (CGAs) to understand the challenges they have faced in their roles as charter school gatekeepers. CGAs use diverse strategies to meet their responsibilities, but in many cases the processes by which charter schools will be held accountable have not been well-developed. (SLD)
