Across America, students are walking out, parents are opting their children out and teachers are rallying against the abuses of high-stakes standardised testing. These are the stories - in their own words - of some of those who are defying the corporate education reformers and fuelling a national movement to reclaim public education. Alongside the voices of students, parents, teachers and grassroots education activists, the book features renowned education researchers and advocates, including Diane Ravitch, Alfie Kohn and Mark Naison.
Jesse Hagopian, the book’s editor and contributing author, is a teacher at Seattle’s Garfield High School, an editor for Rethinking Schools magazine, and was a leader in the historic boycott of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) test of 2013.
