Review:
These stories...will provide encouragement to those who are engaged in the daily struggle of supporting high-risk youth and challenge those who maintain that no intervention from outside the family can help.>>>> (Schorr, Lisbeth B.)
The experiences of these students...demonstrate again and again that what young people want and need is relatively simple...a community to belong to, something worthwhile to think about and to do, responsibility and acceptance, someone to love them, and others to care about.>>> (Ayers, William)
I urge educators and parents to read this unique and intimate book which provides a multidimensional look at a successful school and the students who benefitted from its work.>>>> (Herb Kohl)
This book is an absolute must, and reads like a delicious meal!...Buy it! Read it and smile!>>>> (Herb Kohl The Journal Of Alternative Education)
The common sense and the uncommon compassion of the Community School has improved hundreds of young lives and enriched the surrounding neighborhoods.>>>> (George Mitchell)
