New National Report Finds Weak Charter School Laws Enable Profiteering, Instability, and Nearly $1 Billion in Taxpayer Losses NEW YORK, Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Center for Charter School Accountability (NCCSA), a project of the Network for Public Education, recently released Charter School Reckoning: Disillusionment, the second installment of a three-part series. This sweeping national analysis concludes charter school laws require reform.
The main argument of the 35-page report is that charter schooling has been steadily weakened by state laws that favor rapid expansion and less regulation over school quality and public oversight. These policy and legislative changes have led to predictable outcomes: fraud, mismanagement, profiteering, insolvent schools, and sudden closures. The report links these issues to weaknesses in state charter laws and regulations that enable both ill-advised practices and criminal activity. https://fox2now.com/business/press-releases/cision/20251208NY41374/new-national-report-finds-weak-charter-school-laws-enable-profiteering-instability-and-nearly-1-billion-in-taxpayer-losses/
