Abstract	This "Equity by Design" research brief summarizes a study published by Waitoller and Maggin (2018) in the special education journal "Remedial and Special Education." The purpose of this research was to examine whether charter schools mitigate racial inequities evidenced in access to general education classrooms in neighborhood schools, or if they reproduce such inequities. The research question was, how do racial disparities evidenced in the placement of students receiving special education services (SRSES) in the least restrictive environment (LRE) in neighborhood schools (NS) compare to those in charter schools? The authors used a longitudinal analysis of odds ratios to examine annual school data on students' placement in the LRE in Chicago Public Schools (CPS) from 2008 to 2012.

A Longitudinal Study in Chicago Public Schools," see EJ1253844.] (ERIC).
