Utah's Charter School Law Improves

The Center for Education Reform has moved up on the ranking of all charter school laws in the nation from 28th to 4th! This gives Utah a high B ranking, just above Colorado's own B. Other neighboring states didn't fare as well. New Mexico earned a B, but Wyoming earned a D and Kansas a F. Nebraska doesn't even have a charter school law.

Criteria for the ranking include autonomy, multiple authorizers in the state, the number of charter schools allowed, and equity. The Center for Education Reform compiles this analysis each year.
