Colorado Charter Schools Aren’t Perfect, but They Get the Job Done Colorado Springs Gazette April 4, 2000 by Robert Holland A recent report from the U.S. Department of Education documented the phenomenal growth of charter schools, while a state-level study done in Colorado was showing how these quasi-independent schools can work at their best. In its fourth-year report on charter schools, The State of Charter Schools 2000, DoEd reported that 421 charter schools opened in the 12 months before September 1999 a 40 percent jump, the most brisk increase yet. In all, more than 1,700 charter schools have come into existence since 1991, and they serve a quarter of a million students. Thirty-seven states and the District of Columbia have passed charter laws. In fact, with 4.4 percent of its students in charter schools the highest percentage in the country the District is one of the places where charters have especially thrived as parents seek alternatives to inadequate government schools. According to the report, 58 percent of charter founders said they wished to "realize an alternative vision of education," while 23 percent aspired to serving a special population of children, such as those considered "at risk."

Description Woodrow Wilson Academy is a charter school embracing the Core Knowledge and Open Court curriculums. The goal of the school is to bring together children, parents, staff, and the community to provide a quality education for the children. History Curriculum Along with Core Knowledge, Woodrow Wilson Academy will use the Open Court Reading and Writing program, which focuses on the fundamental skills of reading, writing and research. The Open Court Reading and Writing Programs are based upon instructional principles that have proven themselves to influence successful learning by the majority of children-average, slow and gifted. Open Court believes in giving children real literature at the earliest possible moment. By doing this, children learn to read while being entertained by the stories of many great writers. Open Court supports cultural literacy by providing varied selections for reading including fables, folk tales, myths, and traditional and contemporary classics. By providing varied literature experiences early in learning, Open Court keeps students actively involved in developing their own literary skills.
