4th Grade Reading Results
The results of the fourth grade NAEP reading exams indicated little difference in
academic performance between charter schools and traditional public schools. Traditional public
schools had a slight edge on the results overall but the differences were not statistically
significant. There was no statistical difference when ethnicity was considered, although
traditional public schools had a slight performance edge with black students and charter schools
had a slight edge with Hispanic students. Traditional public schools demonstrated statistically
significant positive results for female and low SES students. These results comprised a positive
demonstration of charter school performance when "on average, charter schools have higher
proportions of students from groups that typically perform lower on NAEP than other public
schools have" (ED, 2004, p. 1).35
