Distinctly concerned with portraying the validity of student involvement, this book offers a sweeping analyses of school reform that involves students in meaningful ways, and school reform that does not.  In two main sections authors describe and analyze the tension between school change that ignores or suppresses students’ input.  They also look at initiatives that uplift and embrace students, thereby improving student engagement throughout schools.  In the final chapter, the editors note that students often let educators know what they need to succeed, and that there are trends for successful student-centered, equity based reforms.
