This annual report, in its eighth edition,
found that Education Management Organizations (EMOs) are consolidating and shifting business models to
meet the demand for supplemental education services. Large EMOs continue to focus on managing charter
primary schools and enrolling relatively large numbers of students in those schools. Fifty-one EMOs
operate in 28 states and the District of Columbia, enrolling some 237,179 students. The report is the
most comprehensive resource on the for-profit education management industry.
