For nearly two decades, education entrepreneurs have been working
to transform the K-12 public education system in the United States.
"Social entrepreneurship" has become part of the language of a new
generation of idealists, many of whom are focused on education. The
nineteen cases in this book profile entrepreneurs who are pursuing
opportunities to create pattern-breaking social change in our
public schools-in particular, by creating high-quality educational
opportunities for low-income and minority students who are
dramatically underserved by the current public education system.
Students are invited to explore four overarching questions: Why are
there opportunities for entrepreneurs in a sector that is funded
with public dollars and delivered by public agencies? Why is
entrepreneurial activity aggregating around certain opportunities?
What are the possibilities and constraints faced by entrepreneurs
in each opportunity area? How can we evaluate the impact of these
entrepreneurs' efforts?
