Parents and Marginalized Students - Essential Steps for Parents to Improve Schools

Parents wanted their children to progress academically, socially, and emotionally at school. Although they asked educators for help with problems, they did not always agree about the causes or the solutions. This book is about the turmoil that parents created. It is intended for them, educators, and the many other groups that became involved.
