The Mission Hill School, founded by MacArthur Award winner Deborah Meier and colleagues in 1997, is a small public school that has rethought almost everything about the process of teaching and learning. Beyond richly describing and evaluating this highachieving school, the author argues that democratic education is increasingly difficult in this era of testing and standardization and that a school such as Mission Hill must be continually thoughtful, innovative, and courageous in counteracting systemic inequality. This indepth examination is essential reading for anyone interested in how to better understand seemingly intractable problems related to urban public education in the United States.Book Features: An exemplary model of democratic education that shows the inner workings of a largely teachergoverned school. A rare example of an urban school implementing Deweyinfluenced progressive pedagogy. Indepth descriptions of an antiracist and culturally relevant pedagogy and curriculum. A close examination of successful practices, including shared decision making, intensive problem solving, and looking at student work.
