<p>This is a book about alternatives to the status quo of "might makes right" in running a school. It’s a book about diversity and equity; about people changing people’s lives. Nine diverse women’s personal stories about their experiences give you a different way of looking at school leadership. These women see power not as "power over" but, rather, "power through and around and in-between." These women make a real difference in the lives of their students and staff. The women here use their power in innovative ways. And they pay close attention to education’s bottom line: what’s best for student learning. A common thread runs through the stories: the belief that a successful school is one in whichChildren learn in a safe environment Everyone is welcome and feels a sense of belonging Learning and teaching are meaningful and productive Connections with family and community are valuable parts of school lif Opportunities for global learning and critical thinking are included in the curriculum</p>
