Dilemmas of Prescriptive Practices and Perceived Alignment in Program Implementation
This paper studies the early implementation of a school improvement effort in two high schools. We examine what explains variation in the teacher adoption of program practices. Our findings highlight the tension between encouraging immediate adoption of program practices and the longer term goals of schoolwide culture change. We find that highly structured practices and those that are already aligned with teachers' extant beliefs and classroom pr…
Latino Parents’ Choice of Magnet School
Historically, magnet schools have served predominantly Black and Anglo populations. Consequently, little research exists on Latino parent’s engagement in school choice and their patterns of participation. Magnet schools are increasingly part of the landscape for improving school achievement for all students. Yet Latino enrollment rates in magnet schools fall short of their representation within most urban populations as well the population as a w…
Parent preferences and parent choices
School choice survey data from the Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools, a large county‐wide school district, is analysed to examine the characteristics of parents who consider choosing private schools for their children and those who do not. We examine differences in background, including race, educational attainment and socioeconomic status, as well as differences in parent satisfaction with their child’s previous school, parent involvement in…

Educational leaders as teacher educators
Parent Involvement and Teacher Decision Making in Urban High Schools of Choice
Parent involvement and teacher decision making are dominant themes in the current debate over school restructuring. The literature suggests that as teachers become empowered, they may tend to view parents more as clients of education rather than as partners, thereby introducing a potential conflict into the interaction of parents and teachers. This study examines the nature of these relationships under different types of school choice options. Fi…

Classroom diversity and teachers' perspectives of their workplace
Beyond the individual assessment of principals
Principals of truly restructured schools are principals who have chosen to deal positively and directly with complex forces impacting all schools today. These principals shape dynamic schools that are actively involved in many school improvement efforts. Principals in these schools behave differently than their colleagues in traditional schools; therefore, evaluating their work requires a different approach. In this article, we discuss the forces…
