Jacqueline Edelberg - How to Walk to School

10/17/2010 3:00 pm

Practical advice from the author of the revolutionary and inspiring book that's transforming public education in America.

Discussion follows with CPS expert Ellen Lorden and representatives from Hyde Park & Kenwood Elementary Schools.

About the book:

"How to Walk to School is the story of motivated parents galvanizing and then organizing an entire community to take a leap of faith, transforming a challenged urban school into one of Chicago's best, virtually overnight. The fate of public education is not beyond our control. In How to Walk to School, Susan Kurland, an entrepreneurial principal, and Jacqueline Edelberg, a neighborhood mom, provide a blueprint for reclaiming the great public schools our children deserve."

Presented with the Parent Support Network of Hyde Park/Kenwood and The Family Resource Center of the University of Chicago.
