Abstract
The aim of this study was to talk about a quality education in a way that made it less subjective. This was accomplished by examining student responses to several key themes such as parent involvement, teacher involvement, the use of multiple assessments, the suppression of minorities, socioeconomic influence, and the influence race plays. My study found that I do not have definitive proof to say that the alternative schools I interviewed are providing a quality education overall.
