Children from all minority groups are predicted to attend higher poverty schools than whites, though the differential is much smaller for Asians than for Blacks or Hispanics.
-
After controlling for all variables in the model they continue to find large disparities between groups, with whites and Asians able to attend the highest performing schools at a given poverty level and charter/non-charter category, and blacks and Hispanics generally in the worst performing schools.

The difference between charter and non-charter schools for white students (elementary or high school) shows that whites’ charter schools have lower average math scores, though there is no significant difference on reading.
-
In every charter vs. non-charter comparison of test scores in low- poverty schools, non-charter schools do better. In almost every comparison between in high-poverty schools, charter schools do better.
-
In low-poverty schools, non-charter schools have higher average scores, but the lines converge or cross at some point. Higher poverty in all cases is associated with lower scores, but the slope of that line for charter schools is flatter than for non-charter schools
-
Almost all white students are in schools with low enough poverty that non-charters outperform charters. But for blacks and Hispanics well over half of students are in schools that are poor enough for a charter school advantage to take effect.
-
The black*charter interaction shows that black students in both elementary and high schools are more racially isolated in charter schools than in non-charter schools regardless of their poverty level. Native Americans are also more isolated in charter schools, but as noted earlier there are very few Native Americans in charter schools.
-
Asians in charter high schools are significantly less isolated than in non-charter schools, but again this may be because there are very few Asians in charter schools in general.
