The quest for school improvement is old. The demand for dramatic,
immediate school improvement is new. Even as President Barack Obama
and Secretary of Education Arne Duncan commit $4.3 billion to
making 5,000 of the nation's worst-performing schools better now,
few people know what that really looks like-or how it actually
works. How do school and district leaders enact rapid and
meaningful reform that truly transforms the lives and learning of
their students? Inside School Turnarounds uses on-the-ground
reporting and up-to-the-minute research to provide a compelling and
insightful exploration of the work of school turnarounds. Veteran
education journalist Laura Pappano gathers stories, ideas, emerging
practices, and honest admissions about what has worked and what
hasn't for schools and districts caught in midstream as they
navigate this uncertain journey. In the voices of administrators,
teachers, children, and parents, Pappano's book captures the joys
and frustrations, passions and challenges of those responding to
the unprecedented demands being placed on-and embraced
by-turnaround schools.
