Abstract

This chapter examines two public military-themed charter schools that meet researcher-developed minimum thresholds for academic and socioemotional success. Through document review, extensive on-site observations, and comprehensive interviews, the researchers examine the two schools in comparison to a conceptual framework developed almost 20 years ago by one of the researchers. The conceptual framework is predicated on four pillars present to varying degrees in military schools and colleges across the United States – academics, leadership, citizenship, and athletics. Careful analysis of both schools through the lens of all four pillars of the conceptual framework validates the framework as a successful means of evaluating the efficacy of a military-themed charter school.
