A Blueprint for Change in Education

Making Schools Work documents the remarkable achievements of Dr. Marcus A. Foster, who became nationally recognized for transforming "problem schools" in Philadelphia and later leading the Oakland Unified School District as superintendent. In the book, Dr. Foster confronts the challenges in urban education by encouraging "a problem-solving process" that engages teachers, students, parents, community members, and businesses. Originally published in 1971, Making Schools Work remains vital to education and equity conversations.
