In today's educational crisis, many people are coming to realize
that there is far more to a school than imparting knowledge and
skills to children. Schools are communities, and like all
communities, they can be healthy or unhealthy. School Renewal
speaks to the problems and challenges of a school community. Using
fairy tales, myths, and personal experience within the Waldorf
method of education, Torin Finser describes how teachers and
parents can handle such common problems as burnout, personal
conflicts, and falling into routine.
Most importantly, Finser stresses, an educational community must
address the many unseen dimensions of each human being. He shows
how these little-understood aspects of the mind can be cultivated
and nourished to keep school life alive.
School Renewal does not offer formulas and slapdash solutions.
Instead it encourages a whole new way of thinking about education
and personal growth, both for children and the adults who care
about them.
