Over a decade ago, the first edition of City Schools and the
American Dream debuted just as reformers were gearing up to make
sweeping changes in urban education. Despite the rhetoric and many
reform initiatives, urban schools continue to struggle under the
weight of serious challenges. What went wrong and is there hope for
future change? More than a new edition, this sequel to the original
bestseller has been substantially revised to include insights from
new research, recent demographic trends, and emerging political
realities. In addition to surveying the various limitations that
urban schools face, the book also highlights programs, communities,
and schools that are making good on public education's promise of
equity. With renewed commitment and sense of urgency, this new
edition provides a clear-eyed vision of what it will take to ensure
the success of city schools and their students.Book Features:
Surveys persistent and emerging challenges in urban education.
Synthesizing the latest education research in a way that is
accessible to a wide audience, including teachers, students,
administrators, parents, and community partners. Focuses on
solutions, highlighting new developments and opportunities for
achieving educational equity despite ongoing political challenges.
Incorporates research from co-author Esa Syeed's extensive study of
school reform and community engagement in Washington, DC.
