School boards shape society through systems of education. They
choose who leads the system and how educators are selected to lead
classrooms. They approve the allocation of millions of dollars
every year. As leaders, the school board determines how their
community defines the values, resources, and belief systems that
together form the democratic mosaic of our times. Embedded within
this knowledge are timeless foundations that have carried us from
the origins of school boards to our current systems; these are the
keys to community engagement, and these are the keys to empowered
and strong school systems. This book is about the remarkable and
unique purpose of school boards. It is not a book about abolition,
or drastic reform. It explains clearly that school boards were
established as part of the foundation for a strong democratic
society and encourages everyone involved with school systems to
guard that foundation. School boards embody the most immediate
principles of democracy. This is an exciting book, appropriate for
our times, focused on the powerful leadership necessary in the
school board, and the potential to deliver ever-improving results
through consistent and deliberate governance.
