Description
to Walk to School is the story of motivated parents galvanizing and then organizing an entire community to take a leap of faith, transforming a challenged urban school into one of Chicago's best, virtually overnight. The fate of public education is not beyond our control. In How to Walk to School, Susan Kurland, an entrepreneurial principal, and Jacqueline Edelberg, a neighborhood mom, provide a blueprint for reclaiming the great public schools our children deserve.
