Would America's schools be better served if teachers shared more of the authority that professors have long enjoyed? Will a slow revolution be completed that enables schoolteachers to shoulder more responsibility for hiring, mentoring, promoting, and, if necessary, firing their peers? This book explores these questions.
In this evocative picture of an urban American high school and its successes and setbacks over 35 years, Grant works out a unique perspective on what makes a good school: one that asserts moral and intellectual authority without becoming rigidly doctrinaire or losing the precious gains in equality of opportunity that have been won at great cost.
Grant compares two cities-his hometown of Syracuse, New York, and Raleigh, North Carolina-in order to examine the consequences of the nation's ongoing educational inequities. The result is an ambitious portrait-sometimes disturbing, often inspiring-of two cities that exemplify our nation's greatest educational challenges.
