Synopsis

Travelling across America, the authors visited 25 small school districts in 21 states to meet, observe, and interview students, teachers, principals and administrators. Here the authors present research that connects with reality. Through their fascinating description of the physical and educational landscape, the authors capture life in nonurban schools 'as it is', and present information that's brutally honest. In this useful book, the authors provide the beginnings of a road map to help small, nonurban districts and communities begin their own journey on the road to better schools.
