The article suggests that the American public education system is being defined as a broken status quo, with stagnant or declining proficiency levels across schools run by Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS). However, Indianapolis charter schools have achieved significant English Language Arts and math proficiency gains across nearly every student subgroup, including Black and Hispanic students at innovation charter schools who are two to three times more likely to achieve academic proficiency than their peers in traditional IPS schools. The author suggests that charter schools are built on the theory of change that charter school is based on, giving talented school leaders autonomy and holding them accountable for results. The article also notes that IPEC's goal is to create a unified accountability framework for all public schools within IPS boundaries and to ensure that all schools are held to the same standards.
