| Abstract | American public schools today are perhaps more linguistically and culturally diverse than at any other point in American history. Nearly one in ten U.S. students is currently classified as an English learner (EL). This report explores the intersection between ELs and charter schools and provides ideas for helping policymakers use charters as sources of educational opportunity for a larger number of EL students. It begins with a look at the current experiences of ELs in charters, including things such as demographics and academic performance. It then explores in more depth three issue areas: (1) improving the information multilingual families get about school choice systems and options; (2) using charters' school-level autonomy to develop school models that meet ELs' unique needs; and (3) developing meaningful charter accountability for improving ELs' performance. The analysis and ensuing policy recommendations build upon the most current research on ELs, school choice, and charter schools, as well as dozens of interviews with charter leaders (and other stakeholders) in communities across the country, often during visits to their schools.
