Common Sense for Our Common Good

Book excerpt: Common Sense For Our Common Good: A Parent Guide To Good Schools is about how you, as a parent, can most effectively support your child and your child's school. That takes both individual passion and collective commitment. But it also takes some basic knowledge about what a good school, public or private, looks and feels like. Supporting your child and your child's school is not just the right thing to do but also the most sensible and productive thing to do. Education is a thoughtful and prudent investment in the brilliance and potential in your child and all children... and will reap human and societal benefits both today and into the future.
