Nearly every effort to reform American public education during the
past half-century has involved the law. Partnerships and tensions
between lawyers, educators, parents, and scholars have never been
more central to the future shape and direction of our schools. This
powerful book examines six of the most important and controversial
school reform initiatives: school desegregation, school finance
reform, special education, education of immigrant children,
integration of youth services, and enforceable performance
mandates. The contributors-leading authorities in the fields of
education and law-examine these reform efforts from the
perspectives of law, education, research, and practice. The authors
trace the evolution of these reform strategies over time. They also
explore ways in which lawyers, educators, scholars, and parents,
through improved collaboration, and promising new approaches, can
promote school reform and educational equity more effectively in
the future. Assuming no special background, this engaging and
accessible book has been written for educators, lawyers,
policymakers, parents, and all readers concerned with education in
America. Contributors to this volume: Jay P. Heubert; Gary Orfield;
Molly McUsic; Carola and Marcelo Suarez-Orozco; Peter Roos; Thomas
Hehir; Sue Gamm; Martin Gerry; Paul Weckstein.
