Just Schools examines the challenges and possibilities for building
more equitable forms of collaboration among non-dominant families,
communities, and schools. The text explores how equitable
collaboration entails ongoing processes that begin with families
and communities, transform power, build reciprocity and agency, and
foster collective capacity through collective inquiry. These
processes offer promising possibilities for improving student
learning, transforming educational systems, and developing robust
partnerships that build on the resources, expertise, and cultural
practices of non-dominant families. Based on empirical research and
inquiry-driven practice, this book describes core concepts and
provides multiple examples of effective practices.Book Features:
Broadens the dominant conception of leadership to include
traditionally marginalized parents and communities as potential
educational leaders. Explores partnerships from both a system-wide
and in-school basis, with detailed portraits of what is possible.
Translates theoretical principles at multiple scales: systemic,
school, and individual practice. Shares studies focused on a broad
range of contexts, strategies, and practices for enacting equitable
collaboration with families.
