The Time Is Now
The Time Is Now argues that understanding and responding to the dropout crisis facing the United States has overlooked one major element – school culture. The book provides a practical theory of action aimed at challenging the ways schools and communities work together to transform education practice, policy, and, ultimately, student engagement and achievement among students of color.
