dc.descriptionIn the landmark 1997 and 1998 Abbott v. Burke rulings, the New Jersey Supreme Court established specific standards and procedures to ensure that all students in the state’s high poverty urban, or “Abbott,” districts receive funding at levels adequate to provide them with a “thorough and efficient” education. These include foundation funding at a level equal to that of the state’s educationally successful suburban districts and procedures to obtain additional state aid to support a package of required programs and services designed to ameliorate the effects of concentrated school poverty. As described in this report, however, the regulations to implement the educational remedies ordered in Abbott exclude both the students who live in Abbott districts but attend charter schools and the charter schools located in Abbott districts from receiving funding at the levels constitutionally prescribed for all public schools and students in those districts. We examined this exclusion of charter school students from the benefits of Abbott and its impact on the schools and students.en_US
