Michigan Charter School MEAP Information
2005-06 MEAP Results Confirm Academic Progress
Latest MEAP results show a notably strong performance among charter school students in the state's "subgroups" -- black, Hispanic, economically disadvantaged and studnts with disabilities.
In comparison to the 18 host districts identified by the Michigan Department of Education to be home to a majority of the state's charters and thus a fair comparison to charter averages, charter students:
- with disabilities outperformn their peers by 6 to 15 percentage points in the 5 subjects tested;
- who are Hispanic outperform their peeers by 6 10 12 percent points in each subject;
- who are economically disadvantaged outperform their peers by 2 to 7 points;
- who are black outperform their peers by 2 to 7 points in math, reading, writing and social studies.
