Remaking America's Three School Systems: Now Separate and Unequal

The American public has been given a distorted view of the state of education in our nation. Milton Schwebel brings the contradictions about the state of education to the attention of his readers and provides a detailed set of proposals for change. Concrete examples and the experiences of real individuals add color and interest to this work and a rationale and documentation to support each proposal is also provided. Topics include the three-tiered system-elite private and public schools which provide leadership in all fields; the vast army of middle-level workers; and the marginal third system, social class differences, and parental mediation. For activists parents, school administrators, teachers, counselors, school psychologists, social workers, health specialists, and educational researchers.
