Описание: In Diverse Families, Desirable Schools, Mira Debs offers a richly detailed study of public Montessori schools, which make up the largest group of progressive schools in the public sector. As public Montessori schools expand rapidly as alternatives to traditional public schools, the story of these schools, Debs points out, is a microcosm of the broader conflicts around public school choice. Drawing on historical research, interviews with public Montessori educators, and ethnographic case studies, Debs explores the forces that pull intentionally diverse, progressive schools toward elitism. At the heart of Debs's book is a thoughtful analysis of the notion of ""fit"" between parents and schools—an idea that is central to school choice, which is often marketed as an opportunity for parents to find the perfect fit for their kids. By exploring parents' varied motivations in choosing these schools and observing how families experience—or fail to experience—a ""good fit"" after having chosen a particular school, Debs makes an original contribution to the literature on school choice and sheds light on the dilemmas entailed in maintaining diversity in progressive charter and magnet schools.

Описание:
Middle-class School Choice in Urban Spaces examines government-funded public schools from a range of perspectives and scholarship in order to examine the historical, political and economic conditions of public schooling within a globalized, post-welfare context. In this book, Rowe argues that post-welfare policy conditions are detrimental to government-funded public schools, as they engender consistent pressure in rearticulating the public school in alignment with the market, produce tensions in serving the more historical conceptualizations of public schooling, and are preoccupied by contemporary profit-driven concerns.
Chapters focus on public schooling from different global perspectives, with examples from Chile and the US, to examine how various social movements encapsulate ideologies around public schooling. Rowe also draws upon a rich, five-year ethnographic study of campaigns lobbying the Victorian State Government in Australia for a brand-new, local-specific public school. Critical attention is paid to the public school as a means to achieve empowerment and overcome discrimination, and both a local and global lens are used to identify how parents choose the public school, the values they attach to it, and the strategies they use to obtain it. Also considered, however, are how quality gaps, distances and differences between public schools threaten to undermine the democracy of education as a means for individuals to be socially mobile and escape poverty.
This book makes an important contribution to our understanding of global social movements and activism around public education. As such, it will be of key interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the field of education, specifically those working on school choice, class and identity, as well as educational geography.

Описание:
Discover how a group of mostly Black parents, working with an energetic principal and dedicated staff, helped build a sought-after, multiracial school in Brooklyn's rapidly gentrifying Bedford-Stuyvesant—a neighborhood where parents have long been dissatisfied with most of their local public schools. Under the leadership of PTA President Keesha Wright Sheppard and Principal Jeremy Daniel, the parents and staff at Brighter Choice Community School confront myriad problems both within the school and outside of the school's control. Challenges include the legacy of decades of housing discrimination, redlining, and disinvestment in Brooklyn; the high rates of homelessness and asthma that make it so hard for children to succeed; and a global pandemic that disproportionately hit people of color. The roots of educational inequality are deep, and not easily overcome without tackling racial and income inequality in our society as a whole. Yet, as this book demonstrates, parents are not powerless. This is the inspirational story of how parents overcame the past and created an equitable school within an unequal city.
Book Features:
Follows a multiracial group of parents, working with an effective principal and staff, as they begin to bridge the deep divides of race and class.
Shows why school integration is so difficult to achieve, even in integrated neighborhoods, because of the weight of historical inequalities and mistrust between groups.
Incorporates social science research to show the impact of school and neighborhood conditions on academic achievement.
Argues that socioeconomic integration offers the best hope for improving schools, but only if school leaders take care not to marginalize children from low-income families.
Draws on interviews with parents and staff, school visits and observations, newspaper articles, scholarly books, and policy reports on school segregation.
