A Fragile Enterprise recounts true stories from the front lines of
the battlefield that U.S. public education has become in the
struggle of the privileged few and the disenfranchised many, The
stories tell how poor, minority, students with disabilities and
non-English speaking students are short changed by schools that are
not level playing fields, teachers who have ceased to care, and a
system that seems willing to write off some students and their
families as expendable. In A Fragile Enterprise you will learn
about the national narrative of education from the viewpoint of
students and their families: You will discover: *That despite the
massive expenditure of public funds, large-scale national education
improvement efforts have largely failed *That failing schools
seldom have the resources and skills to implement the programs that
are thrust upon them. *That the charter school solution leaves
behind the students who need help the most. *How seldom families
are involved in meaningful ways in the education of their children.
*What the best teachers do and why they do it that way. The process
of finding solutions must begin at the heart of the system, the
unique, irreplaceable children we are privileged to educate.
