Creating Micro-Schools for Colorful Mismatched Kids: A Step-by-Step Process that Empowers Frustrated Parents to Innovate Education

Book Description: Creating Micro-Schools for Colorful Mismatched Kids begins with a detailed summary of the problem—middle and high schools just don’t serve most young people well. The “Rainbow of Outlier” populations of underserved students are identified. Dr. O’Shaughnessy, who has created and led four micro-schools and presently leads LEADPrep micro-school in Seattle, then makes a compelling case for micro-schools as a tool for educational change. This guidebook includes a step-by-step process for how to start a micro-school of your own. She issues a call to action for any parent who wants the best education for their child, or to any educator who wants to become part of the micro-school revolution.
