In Spring of 2013, the Public Charter School Alliance of South Carolina, the Colorado League of Charter Schools, and the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools worked to collect evidence that would accurately portray both the adequacy of charter school facilities and the average amount of operating funds spent on facilities. Collectively, the results described in this report provide evidence that charter school students in South Carolina do not have access to the same facilities and amenities compared to traditional public school students in the state. In order to ensure that the policy recommendations of this report are research-based and supported by reliable data, Cuningham Group Architecture, Inc. consulted on the project to provide a set of reasonable standards for school facilities' size and amenities. Given the alignment of the Facilities Initiative and the goals and data needs of the U.S. Department of Education's ("ED") Charter Schools Program (CSP), ED procured additional state surveys, including South Carolina. The National Charter School Resource Center at American Institutes for Research ("AIR") has been subcontracting with the Colorado League of Charter Schools to collect the research and data on behalf of the U.S. Department of Education since October of 2011. To date, AIR has subcontracted for the data collection and research of charter school facilities in seven states: Arkansas (ED561919), Idaho (ED561933), Massachusetts (ED561929), Michigan (ED561921), New Jersey (ED561926), Rhode Island (ED561925), and South Carolina. This report is based on survey, enrollment, and operating revenue data collected for the 2012-2013 school year. All results presented in this report are based on data from the 97.9 percent of South Carolina's brick-and-mortar charter school facilities (48 out of 49 facilities) that completed all or part of a comprehensive facility survey--representing 49 charter schools authorized in South Carolina. Appended are: (1) Methodology; and (2) School Facility Standards.

When charter schools first arrived on the American educational scene, few observers suspected that within two decades thousands of these schools would be established, serving almost a million and a half children across forty states. The widespread popularity of these schools, and of the charter movement itself, speaks to the unique and chronic desire for substantive change in American education. As an innovation in governance, the ultimate goal of the charter movement is to improve learning opportunities for all students—not only those who attend charter schools but also students in public schools that are affected by competition from charters. In The Charter School Experiment, a select group of leading scholars traces the development of one of the most dynamic and powerful areas of education reform. Contributors with varying perspectives on the charter movement carefully evaluate how well charter schools are fulfilling the goals originally set out for them: introducing competition to the school sector, promoting more equitable access to quality schools, and encouraging innovation to improve educational outcomes. They explore the unintended effects of the charter school experiment over the past two decades, and conclude that charter schools are entering a new phase of their development, beginning to serve purposes significantly different from those originally set out for them.
