Direct from the heart of public school reform, James Nehring offers
a complete tour of one charter school -- walking us through the
school's vision of learning, the day-to-day challenges, the many
achievements, and the lessons learned. From the unique perspective
of school principal and then full-time teacher, Nehring takes us
deep into the Francis W. Parker Charter Essential School, providing
rare insight into the strategic issues involved in launching a new
school. This engaging narrative is certain to add credibility and
inspiration to all those who are interested in learning how charter
schools operate and how public education might be renewed in the
process. The message of this book is at once simple and profound:
