This annual report, in its ninth edition, found that, despite repeated requests,
several large, publicly funded Education Management Organizations (EMOs) failed
to provide information about their schools or finances when queried by researchers.
The data collected in the report suggest that the number of charter schools overall
has increased and the number of EMO-run charter schools has stabilized or declined
slightly. The number of students enrolled in charter schools has shown a slight decrease. The report is the
most comprehensive resource on the for-profit education management industry.
