Making Our High Schools Better examines how the differing perspectives of parents and teachers can be understood and negotiated to improve high schools. Even though reformers argue that parents must become more involved with schools, most parents of high school students remain outside the schoolhouse doors. Teachers, who view themselves as experts on teaching and learning, often see parents as problems or critics and are happy to keep them at a distance. This groundbreaking book uses in-depth interviews with teachers and parents to give faces and voices to both sides of the conflict, explaining why parents and teachers should work together to help all children learn.
