Description

Book Synopsis
America's education system faces a stark dilemma: it needs governmental oversight, rules and regulations, but it also needs to be adaptable enough to address student needs and the many different problems that can arise at any given school-something that large educational bureaucracies are notoriously bad at. The authors offer a solution.

Trade Review
"Hill and Jochim offer an engaging, thought-provoking, original, and quite ambitious redesign of K-12 education governance that is rich in historical grounding and practical detail. It will surely generate a vigorous debate over education's biggest issues and the problems that beset our current system." (Julie Marsh, author of Democratic Dilemmas)"
