This book offers educational leaders another tool that, if they are courageous enough to use, transcends the tried-and-true processes and procedures that have typically grounded the educational leader’s performance. This book offers educational leaders the opportunity to use critical spirituality as a practice to wage war against the miseducation of so many of the nation’s children and youth. The book demands attention be paid to the societal issues that impact what happens in schools and argues that the intellectual work in the schoolhouse must prepare students to create strategies to combat these issues and challenges.
The book can be used in advanced courses in educational leadership from multiple perspectives, including contemporary issues, social foundations, social justice, spirituality, and ethics
Dr. Michael E. Dantley is the recently retired Dean of the College of Education, Health and Society and Professor Emeritus of Educational Leadership at Miami University, Oxford, Ohio. His research focuses on leadership, critical spirituality, and social justice especially leadership in urban school contexts.
