"This major contribution to the current literature serves two important objectives. First, it treats the educational problems of New York City as structural challenges common to all urban districts. Second, it introduces practices and issues that have long been overlooked in the debate on school reform. This volume will attract widespread attention in both the academic and the policy communities." -- Kenneth Wong, University of Chicago
City Schools brings together a distinguished group of researchers and educators for an in-depth look at the nation's largest school system. Topics covered include the changing demographics of city schools, the impending teacher shortage, reading instruction, special education, bilingual education, school governance, charter schools, choice, school finance reform, and the role of teacher unions. The book also provides fresh and fascinating perspectives on Catholic schools, Jewish day schools, and historically black independent schools.
Diane Ravitch, Joseph P. Viteritti, and their coauthors explore pedagogical, institutional, and policy issues in an urban school system whose challenges are those of American urban education writ large. The authors conclude that we know a lot more about how to provide effective educational services for a diverse population of urban school children than performance data would suggest.
