Abstract | The issue presents "five essays by a group of scholars who have closely studied the growing phenomenon of mayoral involvement in U.S. schools": Michael D. Usdan of the Institute for Educational Leadership; Michael W. Kirst of Stanford University; Fritz Edelstein from the U.S. Conference of Mayors; Kenneth K. Wong of Brown University; Paul T. Hill from the University of Washington; and Warren Simmons, Ellen Foley, and Marla Ucelli of the Annenberg Institute for School Reform. "[The] authors agree that most mayoral involvement in education - including takeovers - is grounded in the mayors' genuine desire to make their schools better. And while [the] authors also agree that the impact of this involvement is usally more salutary than detrimental, they offer some cautions as well." For example, they mention the risk of "politicizing the schools in self-serving ways" or the risk of "marginalizing communities with less political clout". (DIPF/Orig.). |
