Harold Kwalwasser has put together a call to action for education
reform that makes a clear case for what has to be done in order to
educate all children to their full potential. He visited forty
high-performing and transforming school districts, charters,
parochial, and private schools to understand why they have
succeeded where others have failed. The analysis in Renewal:
Remaking America's Schools for the Twenty-First Century brings
together all of the necessary changes in one dynamic strategy. Many
schools, even though facing seemingly impossible odds, have
succeeded brilliantly. But their histories also reflect that there
are neither silver bullets or demons. The heart of successful
reform is systemic change, which requires the patience,
understanding, and commitment of every adult who has a role in the
process, from parents and taxpayers, to the school board members,
superintendents, and teachers, and on to state legislators and
members of Congress. Renewal offers a clear picture of how to move
away from the mass-production style of education that most schools
offered throughout the twentieth century to a new, more innovative,
and flexible model that can meet this country's promise of truly
educating every child and preparing each of them for the challenges
ahead. Hear from the author in this 5-minute video on YouTube.
