Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sober yet encouraging look at how urban public schools have confronted challenges, defied expectations, and continued to improve In The Enduring Promise of America's Great City Schools, Michael Casserly presents a forthright assessment of the past performance and future potential of large urban PreK-12 school districts in the United States. From a vantage of nearly five decades of work within the Council of the Great City Schools, which now represents seventy-eight of the nation's largest urban public school districts, Casserly expertly distills data on student performance, school enrollment, and the impact of strategic reforms to draw a balanced picture of progress and setbacks in urban schools. Casserly contends that America's urban public schools have played a critical role in expanding democracy, advancing equity, and enhancing opportunities, especially for students from historically underserved groups. He illustrates how urban school leaders have proven themselves adept at handling crises, including the global pandemic. The book outlines the many strengths of large urban districts: they were early adopters of the college and career-ready standards, stalwart supporters of reforms that raised expectations for their students, and engineers of instructional and systems improvements that have led to landmark gains in both math and reading achievement. Casserly leaves readers with thoughts on organizational change in the wake of declining enrollment and funding, among other challenges in education, confident that urban districts will continue to be architects of their own improvement.

Book excerpt: This report examines the operational and educational changes that school administrators attribute to charter schools. It is part of the U.S. Department of Education's 4-year study to document and analyze the charter-school movement. The study asked two questions: What changes have districts made in district operations and district education that can be attributed to charter schools? and Under what conditions do charter schools affect change in district operations and district education? To answer these questions, researchers conducted in-depth site visits in 14 school districts and interviewed by telephone administrators in 35 other districts. The results indicate that every district in the study reported being affected by charter schools and, accordingly, had made operational changes. Nearly half of the district leaders believed that their diminished budgets were attributable to charter schools and had begun tracking the number of students who attended these schools. Likewise, almost half of these leaders reported becoming more customer-service oriented, increasing their marketing and public-relations efforts, or heightening their frequency of communication with parents. Most districts also implemented new educational programs, made changes in educational structures in district schools, and/or created new schools with programs that were similar to those in the local charter schools.

This very practical book is grounded in the important experiences and impressive judgment of one of our nation's most successful school superintendents"—Jon Schnur, co-founder and CEO, New Leaders for New Schools "Tom Payzant is one of the finest urban educators of our generation.
