JLF’s Terry Stoops does more than just recap awards shows. His new report shows that school districts across the state would be forced to close more than 150 traditional schools if new charter school performance standards applied to all public schools.

The Triad would be forced to close 37 schools, with Winston-Salem/Forsyth County losing 18 schools and Guilford County losing 14. Alamance-Burlington would close four schools, and Rockingham County would close one.

WSFCS schools that wouldn’t make the cut include —interestingly enough —the schools of pre-engineering and computer technology at Atkins High School, while GCS schools that would shutter include Dudley, Eastern Guilford and Northern Guilford.

Here’s Terry discussing his report.
