About this ebook
Why do so many educators leave the profession defeated and deflated after years of tirelessly advocating for students? No Justice for Dean uncovers what can happen to such an educator who strives to give students an educational framework in which they could flourish. Here is the story of one man’s quest to change the landscape of secondary education in America. Dean, a public school administrator, pursues his dream of creating a school where there is classroom democracy, respect for student voice, and authentic career preparation based on students’ interests and talents. Unfortunately, his charter school becomes more of a nightmare as Dean is met with plenty of obstacles. Rigid testing requirements, self-serving teachers and board members, and an unsympathetic state charter school authorizer stomp on Dean’s vision and divert him from his mission where students come first. In the end, Dean learns valuable lessons about why it really is so difficult to change an education system that has been in place for well over one hundred years.
