A quality public education is the right of every citizen, and charter schools offer an option to close the achievement gap for students from low-income families. The Massachusetts Authorization of Additional Charter Schools and Charter School Expansion Initiative, also known as Question 2, is on the November 8, 2016, ballot in Massachusetts as an indirect initiated state statute.
| A “yes” vote supports this proposal to authorize up to 12 new charter schools or enrollment expansions in existing charter schools by the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education per year. |
| A “no” vote opposes this proposal to authorize up to 12 new charter schools or enrollment expansions in existing charter schools.[1] |
