ISBN: 9781502981158 / Angielski / Miękka / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a story about turning dreams into reality. Told from the perspective of the founding principal, it is the story of how a small group of dedicated educators and parents created a school from nothing but dreams and hard work; a school that would be recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as one of the top eight charter schools in the nation just five years after its doors opened. This is a story of commitment, passion, and persistence-a real labor of love-that continues to enrich the lives of young people, teachers, and parents who have had the good fortune to be a part of it.

Charter Schools at the Crossroads: Predicaments, Paradoxes, Possibilities
ISBN: 9781612509778 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Charter Schools at the Crossroads offers a frank and nuanced analysis of the successes and shortcomings of the charter movement, and outlines possible directions for the future. Few observers present at the creation of the first charter schools a quarter-century ago could have predicted how rapidly this movement would spread or how thoroughly it would come to dominate the education reform agenda.
