Making Change: Three Educators Join the Battle for Better Schools (Hardback)

Making Change provides an inside look at one of the most radical school reform initiatives that our nation has ever witnessed. In 1990, Kentucky took the unprecedented step of declaring its educational system "unconstitutional" and ratified the Kentucky Education Reform Act-creating a model of education reform considered the best in the land. But within a few short years, early optimism gave way to frustration and doubt. This book is an attempt to understand the painful transitions and personal reflections of three educators as they adjusted to such massive systemic and social change.
