Description

Our public schools are in trouble. Not only have our teachers and students been overwhelmed by three decades of sweeping education reforms, but the long-standing relationship between the public and its public schools is hanging by a thread. Cleaning Up the Mess from Sacred Cows: A Strategy to Take Back Our Public Schools exposes the root of the problem as misguided conventional wisdom which, until now, has been immune from criticism. In Ohio, a grassroots movement challenging this sacred-cow thinking is serving as an important source of learning for the rest of the country.
