Inside Urban Charter Schools Promising Practices And Strategies In Five Highperforming Schools

This book offers an unprecedentedly intimate glimpse into the world of charter schools by profiling five high-performing urban charter schools serving predominantly low-income, minority youth in Massachusetts. Interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations conducted over the course of two years flesh out rich and colorful portraits of daily life in these schools. Using an analytic framework grounded in the research literature on nonprofit management and effective schools, the authors show that these schools excel along the organizational dimensions of structure, systems, human-resource strategies, culture, and clarity of mission-- functions executed with remarkable coherence.
