520 |a The theme of this inaugural serial issue is "Building a Community of Learners." The serial has been designed to address school restructuring and reform and the roles of teachers, administrators, and parents. The first essay, "Constructing Communities of Cooperation" by Anne Turnbaugh Lockwood examines structural change in schools and what is meant by a communally organized school. In addition to certain restructuring reforms, school size is found to be critical to student achievement gains and an equitable distribution of these gains across socioeconomic status. "City Park Secondary School: Community, Collaboration, Commitment," drawn from "Teacher Engagement and Real Reform in Urban Schools" by Karen Seashore Louis (1994), describes a school in the process of restructuring. "The Stories of Two Communally Restructuring Schools" by Anne Turnbaugh Lockwood considers two additional urban schools working toward restructuring for a sense of community. A final section, "Becoming a Community of Learners: Emerging Leadership Practices," presents questions to help practitioners reflect on leadership and the growth of school community. These questions reflect the commonalities in the experience of the three featured schools. A nine-item selected bibliography is included. (Contains 11 references.) (SLD)
