New York City’s black charter school students significantly outperform their public school counterparts, statistics show.

Yomika Bennett, executive director of the New York Charter School Association, suggested that charters seem to be able to do more with much less because “when it’s your [school] and you start this, you are all in.’’, the most of any borough in the city — is an excellent example of the outside-the-box system working, proponents said.

During that same period, black charter school students specifically in grades three to eight even outperformed all races of their public school counterparts in both areas. “I’ve seen the differences,’’ said Williams, noting that his mother is a retired public-school teacher and his brother was a paraprofessional in the public school system.

Parents Craig Williams, left, and Amina Mamah Trawill, right, have children who attend charter schools.Bennett agreed that there is a certain “magic” in the charter-school model that is benefiting children of color who might otherwise fall through the cracks in a public school.
